SHUT DOWN ALL MUSLIM SCHOOLS.
Florida Muslim Private School Tied to Rabid Antisemitism Gets Taxpayer Funded Vouchers
Speaking at the mosque/school, Imam Fadi Kablawi has called Jews “the lowest of the lowest.”
Reviver Academy is a Muslim children’s private school based in Miami, Florida. The school is part of the North Miami Islamic Center (NMIC), which also includes a mosque whose imam, Fadi Kablawi, uses his pulpit to preach violence and target Jews, gays, Christians, women and fellow Muslims with the worst of bigotry. This same school/mosque receives taxpayer funded vouchers from the state of Florida to lower tuition costs for its students. Given the violent and hateful nature of NMIC, its educational apparatus should cease receiving school vouchers and be forced to give back those vouchers it received previously.
Though Reviver and NMIC have separate corporations, they are essentially the same organization. According to the NMIC website, “North Miami Islamic Center is a non-profit 501(c)(3) Tax Exempt Corporation in Miami, Florida. The Organization owns a Masjid (Masjid As-Sunnah An-Nabawiyyah) and an Academy (Reviver Academy, LLC).” The Reviver logo, many times, is presented with the words “Assunah AnnabaweyaRevivers” written under it. All three entities operate out of the same facility, located at 560 NW 165th Street Rd. in Miami, and prior to February 2015, they used the Miami address of 431 NE Circle Ter. #102-24.
The building housing Reviver and NMIC has three floors. The mosque is on the first level. The school uses the second floor. Currently, NMIC is actively raising funds to renovate the third floor to expand the school. Apparently, a good chunk of these funds are coming from Florida’s taxpayers.
As stated on Reviver school registration instructions, “We accept Step Up For Students Scholarship.” Step Up for Students is a Florida nonprofit organization that works with the state to provide scholarships to help pay tuition for private schools. The scholarships average around $7000 per student. During this past Ramadan, soon-to-be Reviver administrator Nabil el-Shukri told the NMIC congregation that he would help them get “vouchers” to assist them in paying for their children’s education.
For Reviver/NMIC to be involved in securing funding linked to Florida’s taxpayers is a huge problem, as it has significant links to terror and is involved in propagating the worst of violence and bigotry.
NMIC is an outgrowth of the Shamsuddin Islamic Center, where future al-Qaeda leader and Nabil el-Shukri’s brother, Adnan,was a congregant and their father, Gulshair, was a founding board member. NMIC originally operated from Shamsuddin’s address. It is not by chance that Shamsuddin’s ex-President, Shazam Mohamed, is now NMIC President and Reviver Manager. Mohamed is too Vice President of the American Muslim Association of North America (AMANA), a group condemned by the ADL for spreading “venomous” Jew hatred, whose President, Sofian Zakkout, was kicked off two anti-crime boards for promoting Hamas and Holocaust denial.
While Mohamed holds the organization’s top leadership role, the face of Reviver/NMIC is Jordanian-born imam Fadi Yousef Kablawi. Kablawi, whom the FBI believes has had involvement with ISIS and who has previously been charged with “making terrorist threats at an airport,” uses the mosque to verbally assault others. This includes Jews, Christians, Hindus, gays, women and even his fellow Muslims, who do not embrace his brand of extremism.
In December 2020, Kablawi told his congregants that Jews are “the lowest of the lowest.” He said that people “crack jokes about Jews being cheap” as “a punishment from Allah.” In January 2021, Kablawi stated that Jews “deserve the wrath of Allah… because he knows what the truth is… [H]e knows what’s right, but his intention is evil.” In May 2021, he said, “[T]he Jews cry… every minute about the Holocaust. And they make it the worst thing happen in history for any group of people… You didn’t suffer… When you come and say, ‘We want money for our great-grandfathers, who were burned by Hitler,’ you’re capitalizing, just as usual. You love money.”
In January 2019, Kablawi told the congregation, “If you look inthe religions in the world, perhaps Christianity can compete for one of the first three places in stupidity.” In September 2021, he stated, “When I go outside to make dawah (outreach), I’m not going [up] to a Christian to tell him ‘I hate you’… but that does not deny the fact I do… I don’t hate him because his head is big or he’s skinny or fat or his skin color, but I still hate him as a being.”
In August 2021, during a speech to his mosque, he stated about America, “I’m a true believer in the fact that Allah has not destroyed this country yet, because we Muslims live in it.” He declared the same for homosexuals, stating: “When Allah tortured Lut (Lot), they knew that what they were doing is wrong… So you want to tell me the gays of today are better? Yet, Allah is not destroying them. The only explanation I know of myself… is because we Muslims are here. So based on that, all gays and all lesbians in America should be standing outside this masjid to give us appreciation. But we don’t want it. Stay away from me.”
Amid this same August 2021 speech, while defending the Taliban’s treatment of women, Kablawi vilified female victims of sexual assault, impugning women for the crimes committed against them. He asked, “Can you tell me about rape?” He continued, “‘Oh, he’s one of them. Oh, he blame the women for the way they dress for getting raped.’ I blame them, but I don’t free the perpetrator.”
Kablawi has also preached violence. In July 2020, Kablawistated, “[J]ihad is when you put your life on the line… Real jihad is not climbing walls. Real jihad is climbing over people’s necks and heads and skulls.”
At least one of Kablawi’s followers, then-Masjid As-Sunnah An-Nabawiyyah congregant Salman Rasheed, appeared to have taken Kablawi’s words to heart, when he was arrested for soliciting an individual to contact ISIS in a plot to murder the deans of both Broward College and Miami-Dade College. Rasheed posted on Facebook, “Americans Are Our Greatest Enemy After Israeli Yahuds” and “Americans will pay Inch by Inch For everything they have done to us…” Kablawi, who met with and spoke with Rasheed on several occasions, called Rasheed a “good brother.” Rasheed’s mother accused Kablawi of having brainwashed her son to commit terrorist acts.
During Kablawi’s sermons, one can view several children roaming the congregation floor. This is deeply disturbing, as these innocents are taking in the hatred and violence that is being spewed by the Reviver/NMIC leadership. Certainly, there is reason to believe that a number of ‘Salman Rasheeds’ are very well being groomed for the future, there. And what is more disturbing is that all of this is being assisted by the state of Florida and the Florida taxpayers, who willingly or unknowingly are providing tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of dollars to this wildly radical institution.
In July 2003, the Islamic Academy of Florida (IAF), a Muslim children’s private school not unlike reviver, was dropped from Florida’s state voucher program. Florida legislators had voiced concern that IAF had been named by the US government, in an indictment, as being part of a terrorist enterprise. According to the indictment, the school had been used to raise funds forPalestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) and to harbor PIJ operatives. As a result of IAF being dropped from Florida’s voucher program, the school lost over $300,000 in vouchers.
Because of Reviver/NMIC’s association with violence and bigotry aimed at Jews, Christians, homosexuals, women and others, Florida legislators must do the same with Reviver Academy as they have with IAF and end the school’s relationship with Step Up For Students or any Florida state voucher program. Additionally, Reviver Academy should be made to pay back any vouchers that have already been received, as these vouchers were obtained while this institution was linked to said violence and bigotry.

Taliban: ‘A Woman Is a Man’s Property and Must Serve Him, Not Get Educated’
(CNSNews.com) – “A woman is a man’s property and must serve him, not get educated,” the Taliban’s higher education minister has said, as the fundamentalist group’s decision to suspend university education for Afghan women continues to draw international condemnation, including from some Islamic governments.
“Islam does not allow women to commit prostitution under the pretext of education,” tweeted Nida Mohammad Nadeem. “A woman is a man’s property and must serve him, not get educated.”
As small groups of Afghan women took to the streets to protest the controversial move, Nadeem went on national television on Thursday to defend it, saying that “prostitution” was occurring as a result of gender mixing in some universities, despite a ban on co-ed learning.
Moreover, he said, some of the fields of study being pursued by women were not in line with “Islamic law and Afghan pride.”
Nadeem said the decision to “stop the education of women” came from the “Amirul Momineen” – a term meaning “commander of the faithful” and ascribed to Taliban leader Hibatullah Akhundzada.
“I presented all the reasons to the nation regarding the decision of Amirul Momineen, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, regarding the prohibition of girls’ education,” Nadeem tweeted after the television appearance.
“Not observing the hijab, traveling from one province to another province to study in dormitories, non-shari’a curriculum, and the existence of faculties that women do not need to study.”
“In addition, in many universities there was still mixing, which opened the way to prostitution.”
Nadeem said women had been studying fields “that were in contrast with the dignity and pride of women and Afghan culture,” singling out engineering, agriculture, and science.
“No one can prove the necessity of studying ‘modern science’ for women even in the Qur’an and Hadiths,” he said, referring to Islam’s sacred text and the written traditions of Mohammed, the religion’s seventh century founder.
Nadeem also warned that any Muslim opposing the Taliban’s ruling on the matter would be viewed as a rebel, “and the punishment for rebellion is clear in Islam.”
(Islamic scholars differ over whether rebellion against a Muslim ruler is subject to hudud punishments – literally “limitations imposed by Allah” – which depending on the offense and interpretation include stoning, limb amputation, flogging, and the death penalty.)
Alongside critical reaction to the Taliban decision from Western countries, some leading Islamic governments also weighed in, joining calls for it to be reversed.
The Saudi foreign ministry Turkey and Qatar also called on the Taliban to reconsider.
Even the Iranian regime, whose treatment of women has triggered months-long protests and saw it ejected from a top U.N. women’s rights agency, expressed regret over the decision.
The Organization of Islamic Cooperation’s women’s division called on the authorities in Kabul “to reverse this hasty decision, which is against Islamic law and Afghan women’s basic rights.”
Nadeem appeared to shrug off the criticism from Islamic governments, tweeting, “We want pure Islam, not like Turkey and Saudi Arabia.”
Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Thursday it was “important and powerful” that criticism was also coming from Islamic countries.
“There are going to be costs if this is not reversed, if this is not changed,” he told reporters at the State Department. “I’m not going to detail them today, but we will pursue them in coordination with allies and partners.”
‘Within the limits of Islam’
The Taliban seized power in August 2021, two decades after being toppled by U.S.-led forces after the 9/11 terror attacks carried out by its al-Qaeda ally.
Just weeks before Kabul fell, the organization in a statement clearly rejected what it called “non-Islamic forms of governance.”
“Everything from politics, economics, culture and education to social life must be follow our religious values,” it said then. “This is because Afghans do not desire the elimination of military aggression alone, but also the termination of western political, cultural and ideological invasion.”
When the Taliban held its first press conference after seizing power, on August 17, 2021, spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said the group would respect women’s rights “within the limits of Islam.”
“Our women are Muslims, they accept Islamic rules,” he said. “If they continue to live according to shari’a, we will be happy, they will be happy.”
After setting up an “interim” government comprising in large part U.N. Security Council-sanctioned terrorists, the Taliban banned girls from attending school beyond grade six, and tightened restriction of the movement of women and girls, prohibiting them from flying unless accompanied by a male “guardian,” and recently prohibiting them from visiting parks or gyms.
Last June, the U.N. Security Council in response to the girls’ schooling decision restored a U.N. travel ban for two Taliban education heads, one of whom was the then higher education minister, Abdul Baqi Haqqani.
Haqqani was succeeded in October by Nadeem.

Persecuted into Extinction: The Fate of Christianity in Bethlehem
The vastly, and intentionally, unreported demise of Christianity in its place of birth.
After noting that there “has been a marked uptick in religiously motivated attacks by Palestinian Muslims on Christians in Bethlehem,” a Nov. 21, 2022 report offers some examples:
Just over two weeks ago, a Muslim man was accused of harassing young Christian women at a Forefathers Orthodox Church in Beit Sahour near the city of Bethlehem. Soon after, the church was attacked by a large mob of Palestinian men who hurled rocks at the building while congregants cowered inside. Several of the congregants were injured in the attack.
The Palestinian Authority, responsible for security in the area, did nothing.
In October, unidentified gunmen shot at the Christian-owned Bethlehem Hotel after a video on social media associated the hotel with a display that included cardboard cutouts of a Star of David and a Menorah. …
No arrests were made in connection with the shooting.
Perhaps the greatest shock to the community came in April when the Palestinian evangelical pastor, Johnny Shahwan, was arrested by the Palestinian Authority security forces on charges of ‘promoting normalization’ with Israel. …
In January, a large group of masked men carrying sticks and iron bars attacked Christian brothers, Daoud and Daher Nassar, on their farm near Bethlehem. The Palestinian courts have been working to confiscate the farm that has been owned by the family since the Ottoman Empire.
Although this report focuses on recent attacks, the persecution of Palestinian Christians is a longstanding problem. As Rabbi Pesach Wolicki, Director of the Center for Jewish-Christian Understanding and Cooperation, said:
Unfortunately, these recent attacks against churches are not new. Christians have been under attack in Bethlehem for many, many years. There have been bombings. There are near-constant physical attacks against Christians. They’re going on a regular basis, ever since the Palestinian Authority took over.
His words echo those of Kamal Tarazi, an elderly Christian man from Gaza who in 2019 said: “The moment they [Hamas] took control [of the Gaza Strip], they started persecuting us, ruining our churches and forcing Christians to convert to Islam.” Before fleeing, he tried to resist the Islamist takeover, including by calling on Muslims and Christians to unite against Hamas. As a result, “I was jailed several times. Do you know what a Hamas prison is? It is pure torture.”
Even mere numbers—which are inherently objective—confirm that Christians living under the PA are experiencing some sort of unpleasantry unexperienced by Muslims: In 1947, Christians made up 85% of the population of Bethlehem, an ancient Christian stronghold, whereas by 2016, they had declined to only 16%.
“In a society where Arab Christians have no voice and no protection it is no surprise that they are leaving,” Justus Reid Weiner, a lawyer acquainted with the region, said: “The systematic persecution of Christian Arabs living in Palestinian areas is being met with nearly total silence by the international community, human rights activists, the media and NGOs.”
This final point cannot be overstated: incidents of persecution are never reported by international media. Speaking on condition of anonymity, a Christian Arab resident of Bethlehem emphasized that all of the most recent instances listed above were even underreported within Israel itself, before adding:
This needs to be heard for the purpose of educating the Jewish world and the Christian world about the state of Bethlehem. There are incidents happening constantly, whether it be neighbors against each other, or people in the streets, or even organizations and churches. Most times, it is a case of the Muslim community overpowering the minority, which is the Christian community.
Why is the persecution of Christians in Bethlehem and other PA-controlled territories so un- or under-reported? Certainly it’s not because they experience less persecution than their coreligionists throughout the Muslim world, where the bulk of the world’s persecution of Christians occurs.
“The attacks by Muslims on Christians are often ignored by the international community and media, who seem to speak out only when they can find a way to blame Israel,” wrote the Muslim journalist Khaled Abu Toameh:
Another disturbing situation is that the leaders of the Christian community in the West Bank are reluctant to hold the Palestinian Authority and their Muslim neighbors responsible for the attacks. They are afraid of retribution and prefer to toe the official line of holding Israel solely responsible for the misery of the Christian minority.
Open Doors, a human rights group that follows the persecution of Christians, reports that Palestinian Christians suffer from a “high” level of persecution, the source of which is “Islamic Oppression”:
Those who convert to Christianity from Islam, however, face the worst Christian persecution and it is difficult for them to safely participate in existing churches. In the West Bank they are threatened and put under great pressure, in Gaza their situation is so dangerous that they live their Christian faith in utmost secrecy….The influence of radical Islamic ideology is rising, and historical churches have to be diplomatic in their approach towards Muslims.
The unique situation of Palestinian Christians—living in a politically contested arena where “public image” and therefore opinion is everything—perhaps best explains the lack of exposure. “The Persecution of Christians in the Palestinian Authority,” a report by Dr. Edy Cohen, published by the Begin-Sadat Center for Strategic Studies in May 2019, goes a long way in validating this supposition.
First, it documents more instances of persecution of Christians, all of which were back-to-back and occurred right before the report’s publication, and none of which were reported by so-called “mainstream media”:
- April 25: “[T]he terrified residents of the Christian village of Jifna near Ramallah … were attacked by Muslim gunmen … after a woman from the village submitted a complaint to the police that the son of a prominent, Fatah-affiliated leader had attacked her family. In response, dozens of Fatah gunmen came to the village, fired hundreds of bullets in the air, threw petrol bombs while shouting curses, and caused severe damage to public property. It was a miracle that there were no dead or wounded.”
- May 13: “Vandals broke into a church of the Maronite community in the center of Bethlehem, desecrated it, and stole expensive equipment belonging to the church, including the security cameras…. [T]his is the sixth time the Maronite church in Bethlehem has been subjected to acts of vandalism and theft, including an arson attack in 2015 that caused considerable damage and forced the church to close for a lengthy period.”
- May 16: “[I]t was the turn of the Anglican church in the village of Aboud, west of Ramallah. Vandals cut through the fence, broke the windows of the church, and broke in. They desecrated it, looked for valuable items, and stole a great deal of equipment.”
These three attacks, which occurred over the course of three weeks, fit the same pattern of abuse that Christians in other Muslim majority regions habitually experience. While the desecration and plundering of churches is prevalent, so too are Muslim mob uprisings against Christian minorities—who tend to be perceived as dhimmis, or second-class “citizens” that should be grateful to receive any toleration at all—whenever they dare speak up for their rights, as occurred in the village of Jifna on April 25: “[T]he rioters” in Jifna, the report continues, “called on the [Christian] residents to pay jizya—a head tax that was levied throughout history on non-Muslim minorities under Islamic rule. The most recent victims of the jizya were the Christian communities of Iraq and Syria under ISIS rule.”
Moreover, as often happens whenever Christian minorities are attacked in Muslim majority nations, “Despite the [Christian] residents’ cries for help” in Jifna, “the PA police did not intervene during the hours of mayhem. They have not arrested any suspects.” Similarly, “no suspects were arrested” in the two church attacks.
However, whereas Palestinian Christians are suffering from the same patterns of persecution—including church attacks, kidnappings and forced conversion—that their coreligionists suffer in other Muslim nations, the persecution of Palestinian Christians has “received no coverage in the Palestinian media. In fact,” Cohen continues, “a full gag order was imposed in many cases”:
The only thing that interests the PA is that events of this kind not be leaked to the media. Fatah regularly exerts heavy pressure on Christians not to report the acts of violence and vandalism from which they frequently suffer, as such publicity could damage the PA’s image as an actor capable of protecting the lives and property of the Christian minority under its rule. Even less does the PA want to be depicted as a radical entity that persecutes religious minorities. That image could have negative repercussions for the massive international, and particularly European, aid the PA receives.
Put differently, the bread and butter of the PA and its supporters, particularly in the media, is to portray Palestinians in general as victims of unjust aggression and discrimination from Israel. This narrative would be jeopardized if the international community learned that Palestinians are themselves persecuting fellow Palestinians—solely on account of religion. It might be hard to muster sympathy for a supposedly oppressed people when one realizes that they themselves are doing the oppressing of the minorities in their midst—and for no other reason than religious bigotry.
Because they are so sensitive to this potential difficulty, “PA officials exert pressure on local Christian[s] to not report such incidents, which threaten to unmask the Palestinian Authority as yet another Middle East regime beholden to a radical Islamic ideology,” Cohen concludes.
Certain Palestinian Christians are also complicit. In his recent book, The Politics of Persecution, Mitri Rehab, a Palestinian academic and Lutheran clergyman living in Bethlehem, insists that whatever persecution Christians may experience in the Middle East has nothing to do with Islam and everything to do with Western or Israeli actions. In his attempt to lay the blame on anything and everything else, he even offers a section in his book on “climate change [which] will take its toll on the Christian community.”
Finally, it’s worth noting that the PA does not merely suppress news of Christian persecution; it actively advertises a false picture. Despite the rapidly dwindling number of Christians in Bethlehem, “The fact that the Palestinian Authority continues to make sure that there is a Christian mayor in Bethlehem is only window dressing,” said Rabbi Wolicki. “It’s a show used to convince the world that Bethlehem, the birthplace of Christianity is still a Christian town. It is not Christian. It is Muslim in every regard.”
And so, during this Christmas season, it is well to remember that, due to ongoing but silenced persecution, Christianity is on the verge of disappearing in the place of its birth—Bethlehem, scene of the Nativity—thereby giving the otherwise seasonally relevant words, “Silent Night,” an ominous meaning. As the most recent report asserts, “The persecution is threatening the existence of the oldest Christian community in the world.”

Christmas Time: When the West Appeases and Islam Slaughters
A literal “War on Christmas.”
One of the most odious aspects of the so-called War on Christmas is Western appeasement of Muslim sensibilities.
Consider recent events in Sweden, where St. Lucia’s Day has been celebrated for centuries. According to Britannica:
St. Lucia’s Day [is a] festival of lights celebrated in Sweden, Norway, and the Swedish-speaking areas of Finland on December 13 in honour of St. Lucia (St. Lucy). …The festival begins with a procession led by the St. Lucia designee, who is followed by young girls dressed in white and wearing lighted wreaths on their heads and boys dressed in white pajama-like costume singing traditional songs. The festival marks the beginning of the Christmas season in Scandinavia, and it is meant to bring hope and light during the darkest time of the year.
Not anymore. At least one school in Sweden has compromised the celebration in order to appease its Muslim students. According to a Dec. 10, 2022 Swedish report (English translation here),
Do you expect Santas, caroler and gingerbread men in the Lucia parade? Not at St Mary’s School (Mariehemsskolan) in Umeå. There it has been decided that the 40 or so children aged 7 to 10 who will take part in the Lucia procession will do so without the traditional elements of a Lucia celebration. The reason for this is Muslim children who dropped out of last year’s celebration because their parents were uncomfortable with the connection between the celebration and Christmas…. The children will also not sing the traditional Lucia songs. The choir director says that many children have been excluded over the years because Swedish schools focused so much on the Lucia festival and it was “so incredibly traditionally Christian.”
Note how the choir director makes it seem that Muslim children were “excluded,” when in fact they, or rather their parents, were the ones who chose exclusion.
Now rid of any distinctly Christmas/Christian trappings, St. Mary’s school posted a picture of one of its recent and highly “watered-down” Lucia rehearsals—boasting a very young Muslim girl dressed in full black hijab.
Such is Islam’s ongoing “contribution” to Sweden. Since that Scandinavian nation opened its door to multiculturalism and migration—the overwhelming majority of which has been Muslim—violent crimes have increased by 300% and rapes by 1,472%. (These figures are based on a 2015 report; as Muslim migration has continued to soar over the last nearly eight years, these stats have likely gotten worse.)
Aside from bringing an exponential rise in mayhem, the growing Muslim population is, as this recent development attests, also slowly but surely erasing—“canceling”—Sweden’s indigenous culture and former Christian heritage. In this case, however, their success is entirely predicated on Sweden’s willing cooperation.
Sweden, of course, is symbolic of the West in general. Expressions of Christmas, particularly the Nativity scene, are being suppressed all throughout the West to appease Muslims. A few examples come from the UK (here and here), Italy (here and here), Germany (here and here), and Belgium (here and here).
In New York City, beginning as far back as 2002, public schools were allowed to display the religious symbols of all religions—including the star and crescent of Islam—except for Christianity, with a particular emphasis on banning the Nativity scene.
It’s also worth noting that not a few of those Western people engaged in such self-suppression are self-identified “Christians”—including the pope himself.
What makes all this appeasement especially loathsome is that, of all non-Christians, it is precisely Muslims who, far from reciprocating such “sensitivity,” do the exact opposite. If anything, the Christmas season often heralds nothing but a rise in the persecution of Christian minorities throughout the Muslim world.
During Christmas of 2015, for example, I made it a point to closely follow and collate instances of persecution for an article. A few examples follow:
- USA: Muslim terrorists attacked a Christmas party in San Bernardino, killing 14 people, including a Christian woman from Iran who thought she had successfully fled persecution by coming to America.
- Nigeria: Muslim terrorists of Boko Haram slaughtered 16 Christians, including children, on Christmas Day. In other years, the jihadist group has bombed or burned several packed churches on Christmas Day. One of the deadliest occurred in 2011, when the jihadists bombed a Catholic church during Christmas mass, killing 39 and wounding hundreds.
- Philippines: Muslim terrorists slaughtered ten Christians on Christmas Eve, in order to “make a statement.”
- Iraq: On Christmas Eve, Islamic terrorists bombed ten homes and a convent in a Christian village.
- Bethlehem: In the birthplace of Christmas, and scene of the Nativity, Muslims stoned a Christian leader and, elsewhere, torched a public Christmas tree.
- Belgium: “Allah akbar” yelling Muslims torched a large, public Christmas tree in Brussels.
- Bangladesh: Christmas midnight mass was canceled due to severe threats of terrorism.
- Indonesia: Christmas mass was not canceled, though heavy security—150,000 personnel—was posted all around churches due to threats of terrorism.
Some might argue that most of these examples were the work of terrorists or other “extremists”—that true Muslims are welcoming of Christmas.
Au contraire. During that same Christmas, the authorities of several Muslim nations “cracked down” on Christmas celebrations.
In Iran, 10 Christians quietly celebrating the Nativity in a house were arrested, shackled, and hauled off on Christmas Day. Moreover, the governments of three other Muslim nations—Brunei, Tajikistan, and Somalia—formally banned Christmas on pain of lengthy prison sentences (from celebrating its Gospel message to putting up trees, dressing like Santa Claus, and/or giving gifts). The Islamic clerics of Brunei summarized the general rationale: “Using religious symbols like crosses, lighting candles, putting up Christmas trees, singing religious songs, sending Christmas greetings … are against Islamic faith.”
Although the above examples come from just one year, 2015, every Christmas season, before and after, sees the same sort of persecution by Muslims. For example, whenever America’s great “friend and ally,” Saudi Arabia, suspects Christian laborers of, as one Saudi official once complained, “plotting to celebrate Christmas,” they are arrested and punished.
Christmas 2022 hasn’t even arrived and Islamic hostility is already brewing. A few days ago in France a Muslim man sawed down a Christmas tree that had been erected in and by the officials of Lormont; a few days before that in Italy, another Muslim man “terrorized everyone” in the town of Sora as they participated in a Christmas tree lighting celebration. Lest the “religious,” that is, Islamic, motivation be missed, both Muslim men hollered Islam’s ancient war cry—“Allahu Akbar!”
If this is how some Muslim minorities react to the overt symbols of Christmas in Western nations, where they are “guests,” how might they react in the Muslim world itself? Well, in Tajikistan, a supposedly “secularized” Muslim nation that is seldom associated with “radicalism,” a Muslim man screaming “infidel!” stabbed another young man to death—simply because he was dressed as Santa Clause. In Jordan, police arrested a man for dressing as Santa Clause.
Such is the lamentable—if not downright disgusting—state of affairs. In the West, where Muslims are granted all sorts of concessions—beginning with the gift of migrating from the Third to the First World— Christmas is increasingly being stifled, lest it offends them. Meanwhile, in the Muslim world, the Christmas season sees only an uptick of the persecution of Christian “infidels.”
Although both are bad, the distinction (more fully discussed here) should not be missed: Christmas is under attack in the West, not because of Muslims, but because of homegrown Western elements who despise the Christian holiday and everything it represents. Rather than be honest, however, they use Muslims as pawns and pretexts.
That, by the way, is the case with everything Western people are told they must suppress—beginning with their religion—in the name of “inclusivity.” In the end, this exercise in self-suppression is not about accommodating minority groups but rather sabotaging Western civilization from within.

Why is an Afghan Muslim Rapist Given Police Protection in Germany?
What’s wrong with this picture? Everything.
Two and a half years ago, Mukhtar N., a 29-year-old Afghan, took part in the gang-rape of a 14-year-old German girl by four Muslim migrants who had been allowed into Germany. Apparently free housing, medical care, and education (to the extent that these economic migrants would want it), food allowances, and more, were not enough; they also felt entitled to make free with Infidel girls who, by their dress and manner, are in their Muslim view “just asking for it.” Now that Afghan rapist is out on the streets. He served two and a half years in prison. Why was he given such a light sentence? Was it because, as an Afghan, he didn’t understand German mores, and couldn’t be expected to follow rules that were so foreign to his way of thinking? He was supposed to be deported after finishing his sentence. But that hasn’t happened. No police have arrived to take him to the airport. Nor has he been punished for ignoring one of the conditions of his freedom: that he check in daily at the Town Hall, so the authorities can keep track of his whereabouts. And because the local government fears that he might be harmed by someone – say, the father or brother of the 14-year-old girl who was raped by four Muslim men over many hours – it has provided him with round-the-clock police protection. What’s wrong with this picture? Everything. The story is here: “Outrage after Afghan gang rapist given police protection in Germany; interior ministry refuses to deport him,” by John Cody, ReMix News, December 16, 2022:
After just two and a half years in prison for gang rape, Afghan Mukthar N. is back out on the streets of Illerkirchberg, but this time he enjoys taxpayer-funded police protection. The fact that he is in Illerkirchberg is also notable, given it is on the outskirts of Ulm, a city that made national headlines recently after an Eritrean migrant murdered the 14-year-old girl Ece S.
Authorities say they are “concerned” for the gang rapist’s safety due to growing resentment in Illerkirchberg, which has a troubled asylum home where gang rapists and murderers have menaced the small community.
Just think of that. There is an asylum home where gang rapists and murderers apparently live, or are prepared for a life of such crime, and from where they emerge to “menace the small community.” Why aren’t they being picked up right now by the police? Or better yet, why hasn’t this “asylum home” simply been shut down for good?
The police protection detail reportedly began on the same day of the funeral for Ece S.
The 29-year-old Mukthar N. was already supposed to have been deported, but due to intervention from left-wing Interior Minister Nancy Faeser (SPD), the man has been allowed to stay in Germany. The district continues to try to deport the sex offender, who drugged and raped a girl, also 14 years old at the time, with three other asylum seekers. The ordeal lasted for hours for the young girl.
However, Faeser’s interior ministry argues that such a deportation is not possible due to Taliban rule in Afghanistan.
But why would the Taliban be any threat to Mukthar N.? He sounds like a perfectly good Muslim. The Taliban wouldn’t mind that he had been involved in the drugging and gang-rape of a 14-year-old kuffar girl. Far from it – they’d be proud of him for showing the Infidels in Germany what real Muslim men are made of. And besides, such girls are only asking for it. No, he’d fit right in in today’s Afghanistan. Interior Minister Nancy Faeser needn’t worry about his safety.
After Mukthar N.’s prison sentence, the state government sent him back to the scene of the crime, Illerkirchberg, where he now has taxpayer-funded police protection. However, the community was never informed the convicted gang rapist was sent back into their area, despite police saying the man continues to represent “high potential danger of committing further sexual offenses to the detriment of unknown young women.”
Why not? Did the police not want to set too many people against Mukhtar N. without giving him a chance to prove what a swell fellow he really is, once you get to know him? What conceivable reason did the police have in not letting everyone know about this extreme sex offender, this once-and-likely-future rapist?
Mukthar N. is supposed to report daily to the town hall of the village as a part of his release conditions, but the rejected asylum seeker has fundamentally violated this requirement. Despite this violation, he has faced no consequences.
That was his only requirement – check in daily at the Town Hall. A most modest task for someone who managed to be sentenced to only 2½ years in prison, despite being convicted of the gang-rape of a minor. But even that was apparently too much for Mukhtar N. to comply with. There have been no consequences for his violation of this requirement. Why?
After the murder of Ece S [another German 14-year-old, murdered by another Muslim migrant], who was stabbed to death on her way to school by a migrant from the local asylum home, police fear there will be retribution against asylum seekers in Illerkirchberg. As a result, once news leaked that Mukthar N. was back in Illerkirchberg, police began guarding his home.
His home? He has a home? Why isn’t he back in the asylum with his fellow migrants, enduring collective living with people just like himself?
According to Bild newspaper, the Ulm police headquarters announced, “We also have to worry about his safety. If there is a recommendation we can give him, then of course we will give it to him.”…
Why was Mukhthar N. ever allowed into Germany in the first place?
Why was Mukhtar N. allowed to live on the dole, happily unemployed, for so many years?
Why was Mukhtar N. sentenced to only 2½ years in prison for the gang-rape of a minor?
Why was Mukhtar N. not deported to Afghanistan once he had served his time, as his original sentence required?
Why was the Interior Minister Nancy Faeser not severely reprimanded for her decision to keep Mukhtar N. from being deported, on the absurd grounds that he would not be safe in Taliban-dominated Afghanistan?
Why was Mukhtar N. not sent back to prison for violating the sole condition of his release, which was to check in at the local Town Hall every day?
Why are the German taxpayers paying for police protection for a convicted rapist?
Why? Pourquoi? Warum?
Our minds are not subtle enough to understand. So please help us out. Please explain.
Biden Lies Again, Claims He Was Golda Meir’s Liaison During the Six-Day War
Mendacious? In the grip of dementia? Or both?
Mon Dec 6, 2021
Old Joe Biden is a serial liar as well as an elderly man in the grip of dementia, and it was initially hard to tell which one was kicking in on Thursday when he claimed that he served as Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir’s liaison to Egypt during the Six-Day War in 1967. Golda Meir wasn’t prime minister of Israel during the Six-Day War, and Biden was an unknown law student at the time, but Biden did meet with her in 1973, so maybe he was just mixing up the two. Apparently this is a case of both Biden lying yet again about his life experiences and also forgetting where he was and when.
“I was saying to a couple younger members of my staff before I came over,” Old Joe began, “about the many times I’ve been to Israel. And I said – and then all of a sudden I realized, ‘God, you’re gettin’ old, Biden – I have known every prime minister well since Golda Meir, including Golda Meir. And during the Six-Day War, I had an opportunity to, uh — she invited me to come over because I was going to be the liaison between she and the Egyptians about the Suez, and so on and so forth.”
Biden is an accomplished panderer; he said this at White House Hanukkah menorah lighting celebration, apparently to show the crowd how pro-Israel he is, despite his administration’s consistently anti-Israel stance. But there is no way it could be true: Biden was 25 in 1967, and was attending Syracuse University College of Law, from which he graduated 76th in a class of 85 in 1968. By 1967, when he supposedly talking to the Egyptian government on behalf of Golda Meir, he had already embarked upon his career of lying. A Syracuse College of Law faculty report on December 1, 1965 stated that Biden “used five pages from a published law review article without quotation or attribution,” and recommended that he fail a legal methods course because of his plagiarism.
Biden’s defense of his actions was predictably sleazy. He wrote to the law school faculty asking that he not be expelled, claiming: “My intent was not to deceive anyone. For if it were, I would not have been so blatant.” He added: “If I had intended to cheat, would I have been so stupid?” Well, why not, Joe?
Biden even served up an early form of his “my word as a Biden” routine: “I value my word above all else. This is a fact which is known to all those who are or have been acquainted with my character.” Yes, he really wrote that. He even had the audacity to claim that as a law student who had already obtained an undergraduate degree, he “had misunderstood the rules of citation and footnoting.”
And now Joe would have us believe that Golda Meir surveyed the wide world and fastened upon one dishonest, plagiarist law student to serve as her mouthpiece in high-level negotiations with a hostile government during wartime. To be sure, Joe did meet with Meir in 1973, when he was just beginning his lengthy career of corruption and deception in the U.S. Senate. He had just come from Egypt, although whether he was actually serving as Meir’s official liaison is unclear. A classified Israeli memo about their meeting shows that he was practically as anti-Israel then as he is now, warning Meir against “creeping annexation” of territories it captured during the Six-Day War and demanding that Israel make concessions to the hostile powers surrounding it. According to Israeli columnist Nadav Eyal, Biden was “full of respect to the PM yet his ‘enthusiasm as he spoke’ signaled his lack of experience in the diplomatic field.” Sounds as if Old Joe hasn’t changed all that much.
It’s bad enough that the president of the United States is a frequent, habitual liar with a record of dishonesty that extends back 56 years. It’s even worse that the sycophantic media doesn’t take any notice of his lies, and continues to do all it can to prop up his disastrous administration and make it appear as if it isn’t the dumpster fire that everyone can see that it is. The corruption of the American body politic is coming from the top; an unprincipled old ward-heeler and political hack such as Biden should never have gotten anywhere near the White House. The fact that his arrival there was greeted with hosannahs and sighs of relief by the international political and media elites bespeaks an even wider corruption. And be prepared: Biden isn’t even close to being through lying.

Son of Biden’s Iran Envoy Works for ‘Iran Lobby’
Tehran is calling the shots in D.C.
During the 2008 election, the Obama campaign dropped Robert Malley as an adviser over his work with Hamas on behalf of George Soros’ International Crisis Group. Once in office, Obama brought back his old buddy into the National Security Council.
Malley (pictured above) then became the lead negotiator for the sellout deal to legitimize Iran’s nuclear program.
Despite vocal criticism from Iranian dissidents and the country’s freedom movement, Biden chose Malley as his special envoy to Iran. Even as Robert Malley continues conducting outreach to the Islamic terrorist state on behalf of the Biden administration, his son works at a pro-Iran organization tied to a key figure in the Iran Lobby.
Robert was the son of Simon Malley, an adviser to PLO terrorist leader Yasser Arafat and the founder of a Communist party in Arafat’s native homeland of Egypt. Blaise Malley represents the third generation of the family’s leftist radicalism being used to prop up Islamist movements.
The son of Biden’s envoy to Iran spends his time undermining American efforts against Iran.
Blaise Malley is listed as a full-time reporter for the Quincy Institute run and funded by key figures in the pro-Iran movement. His most recently article agitates against further American involvement in the conflict against the Iranian-backed Houthi terrorists in Yemen whose motto is, “Death to America, Death to Israel, Curse to the Jews, Victory to Islam.”
Iran spends an estimated $20 million a year backing the Houthis. Their ability to hold parts of Yemen is crucial to the terror regime’s ambitions for the region. America’s first strike against the Houthis was actually in response to their cruise missile attack on the USS Mason.
The Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft was founded by George Soros and Charles Koch. Its donors include a roster of leftists and their foundations including the Ford Foundation, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund, Barbara Streisand, and Frank Giustra: the billionaire at the center of the Clinton Foundation scandal involving the sale of Uranium One to Russia.
The executive VP of Quincy however is Trita Parsi: a dual Iranian-Swedish national who founded the National Iranian American Council. NIAC, described by critics as the ‘Iran Lobby’, has been accused of violating tax laws and the Foreign Agents Registration Act.
Quincy’s board includes Francis Najafi. a wealthy Iranian real estate developer who is also a major funder of NIAC, and Amir Handjani, the exclusive broker for an American company doing business with Iran, and a Quincy Institute fellow, who also appears to be a donor.
Masih Alinejad, the Iranian-American dissident journalist targeted for kidnapping by the regime, tweeted that, “NIAC and Quincy are the Russia Today of the Iranian Regime. They spend all of their time defaming critics of the Islamic Republic, myself included. When the regime attempts to kill us they’re either silent or mealy-mouthed. ”
As an envoy, Robert Malley is in theory supposed to represent American interests. At a minimum, close family members of Biden’s envoy to Iran should not be employed by an organization that has a vehement pro-Iran agenda and ties to pro-Iranian financial interests.
But Blaise, who was nurtured by the same Islamist-internationalist network, who served as a managing editor at the Journal of Middle East Studies and wrote his thesis on “Is a Left/Right Coalition on Non-Interventionist Foreign Policy Feasible” is just the latest incarnation of the Malley family which seems to have been bred to undermine America and support its enemies. It’s only a matter of time until Blaise rises through the think tanks and then into the government.
And Blaise is benefiting from some of the same connections that followed his father around.
A recent letter in defense of Robert Malley fumed that, “those who accuse Malley of sympathy for the Islamic Republic have no grasp of – or no interest in – true diplomacy”. It was signed by, among others, Trita Parsi’s brother, a board member at NIAC, Amir Handjani, a board member and two fellows at Quincy. How better to dispute the accusation that Malley is on Iran’s side.
The difference between father and son is that the elder Malley is embedded within the government and has to be a bit discreet, while the younger Malley is free to do his best Tokyo Rose impression in the virtual pages of any publication that will run his propaganda.
In The American Prospect, a leftist publication, Blaise Malley warned that “Iran’s leadership may also have lost trust in an American government”, suggested that the Islamic terror state might be “keeping the door open to improving relations with the United States”, but cautioned that “it would be a mistake to assume that Iran doesn’t have a say in the deal’s future as well.”
Iranian propaganda could hardly be any more clearly packaged.
In The New Republic, Blaise Malley claimed that sanctions on Iran had killed 13,000 people despite the fact that food and medicine are not sanctioned. Malley quoted a Quincy official complaining that America had sanctioned Iran and “we won’t guarantee to lift the sanctions if they go back to doing what we wanted.”
“No good has come of trying to isolate other authoritarian countries, such as Iran, North Korea, and others,” Blaise Malley whined at the Washington Examiner.
Forget isolating them abroad, the question is how do we isolate them at home.
Foreign agents for Iran, Qatar, the Muslim Brotherhood and the entire network around them have overrun D.C. and the media. And top government officials are complicit in the corruption.
As Iranians protest for freedom in the streets, Robert Malley and the pro-Iran influence networks have been caught up in the backlash. Malley was forced to apologize for a tweet that he described as “poorly worded”. And NIAC, Quincy and their circle have tried to reject allegations that they are part of an ‘Iran Lobby’ by offering some concerned noises about the protests.
The Malley family has come a long way since the French Interior Minister stated that Robert’s father and Blaise’s grandfather was issuing “genuine appeals to murder foreign chiefs of state”.
But while the presentation may have changed, the underlying content remains the same.
The Biden administration is maneuvering to appear to condemn the Islamist regime’s brutal crackdown on the protests while covertly supporting it. But it’s hard to maintain that illusion when the son of Biden’s envoy to Iran is pushing Iranian propaganda for the Iran Lobby.

England’s migrant transformation is even bigger than America’s
England, once the bastion of Western liberty, is rapidly becoming a Muslim-dominated nation, which bodes ill for all who live there. The seeds for this, believe it or not, began with America’s revolution when Parliament rejected inherent rights.
Beginning in the 1760s, as the British began to clamp down on Colonial America, Americans complained that it was denying them their rights under the Magna Carta and the English Bill of Rights of 1689, which contains ideas many will find familiar (separation of the executive and the legislative, the right to bear arms, free elections, etc.). Parliament, however, was so intent upon quashing the upstart colonists that it declared that the Bill of Rights applied only to the king and placed no limits on Parliament.
At that moment, Britain ceased to be a free country. Instead, it existed at the whim of a Parliament that theoretically embraced ancient ideas of British liberty but, in fact, was unconstrained by either rules or inherent rights vested in citizens rather than the government.
Through the 19th century, Parliament still acted as if such rights existed but, with post-WWII era socialism, England became a soft totalitarian nation. It was easy, beginning in the 1990s, to allow virtually unchecked immigration into Britain from Britain’s former colonies, many of which were majority Muslim. In 2015, the floodgates opened when the EU, under Angela Merkel, invited North Africa and the Middle East to invade Europe.
Image: 140,000 Muslims attend an Eid celebration in Birmingham, England. YouTube screen grab.
The result of England’s stealth totalitarianism is plain for all to see: Britain is becoming a Muslim-majority country. Giulio Meotti discusses the results of leftist fealty to multiculturalism in a detailed essay:
The most popular name among those born in England in 2022 is Mohammed.
Fewer than half the people in England and Wales are now Christian, the recent census revealed, with atheism and Islam gaining ground. For the first time since the 7th century AD, England is no longer majority-Christian. That was 1,300 years ago, when the islands were converted from paganism to Christianity. In 2011, in the previous census, Christians numbered 59% of the population. Now, they number 46%.
[snip]
Here is the situation today in major British cities and boroughs. The total population is listed on the left, the Islamic percentage, in parentheses:
- Birmingham, population 1,149,000: (29.9%)
- Leeds, 792,000: (7.8%)
- Sheffield: 584,000: (10.3%)
- Bradford: 536,000 (30.5%)
- Manchester: 553,000 (22.3%)
- Bristol: 467,000 (6.7%)
- Cardiff: 357,000 (9.3%)
- Leicester: 357,000 (23.5%)
- Nottingham: 331,000 (12.2%)
- Newcastle: 315,000 (10.3%)
- Blackburn with Darwen: 148,000 (35%)
- Fenland: 101,000 (12.2 %)
- Luton: 218,000 (32.9%)
- Slough: 164,000 (29.4% )
- Watford: 96,000 (13%)
- Pendle: 91,000 (26%)
- Oldham: 237,000 (24.3%)
- Rochdale: 211,000 (18.8%)
- Kirklees: 438,000 (19%)
- Barking and Dagenham: 211,000 (24.4%)
- Brent: 331,000 (21.4%)
- Newham: 352,000 (34.8%)
- Redbridge: 303,000 (31.3%)
- Tower Hamlets: 319,000 (39.9%)
- Westminster: 261,000 (20%)
The result is that Muslim-driven sectarian violence is rising, with Muslims attacking Christians and Hindus.
As Peter Hammond concluded in Slavery, Terrorism & Islam: The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat, when an immigrant Muslim population reaches a certain percentage, it’s game over for the preexisting culture. The conclusions in Hammond’s book are most frequently summarized as follows:
As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any given country, they will be for the most part be regarded as a peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens.
[snip]
At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and among street gangs.
[snip]
From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves — along with threats for failure to comply.
[snip]
At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world.
When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions. In Paris, we are already seeing car burnings. Any non-Muslim action offends Islam, and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam, with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam.
[snip]
After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian churches and Jewish synagogues….
[snip]
At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks, and ongoing militia warfare....
[snip]
From 60%, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia law as a weapon, and jizya, the tax placed on infidels….
[snip]
After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some state-run ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim….
[snip]
100% will usher in the peace of ‘Dar-es-Salaam’ — the Islamic House of Peace. Here there’s supposed to be peace, because everybody is a Muslim, the Madrasses are the only schools, and the Koran is the only word….
[snip]
Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, as in these 100% states the most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and satisfy their blood lust by killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of reasons.
We’re no longer at the point where we ask, “Whither England?” Instead, the statement is “wither England.”
By the way, Muslims are among the millions crossing our now-broken and open Southern border.
Millions in Hundred Dollar Bills Flown to the Taliban for “Humanitarian Aid”
Terrorists are being funded in plain sight.
As the Taliban were taking over Afghanistan, I predicted that Biden would fund the Taliban using “humanitarian aid” as a pretext. Since then, Biden has provided $1.1 billion in Afghan aid.
Despite assurances that the money would not go to the terrorists, the Biden administration issued global licenses authorizing financial transactions with the Taliban and the Al Qaeda allied Haqqani Network that include the “delivery and provision of humanitarian aid”.
Biden looted $3.5 billion from money awarded to the families of 9/11 victims in a lawsuit against the Taliban and put in a “trust fund” to provide “humanitarian aid”. His DOJ then went to court arguing that the judgment for the victims was too large and that it interfered with the Biden administration’s foreign policy in Afghanistan.
Now an Australian Broadcasting Corporation report has revealed massive stacks of hundred dollar bills sitting on the tarmac at Kabul International Airport. ABC noted that “the picture is just one of several images of United States $100 notes boxed, bagged, or bound in plastic, posted on Twitter by the Taliban-controlled central bank of Afghanistan in recent weeks.”
ABC quoted an expert who suggested that there was a lot more than $40 million in the shipment.
“Especially on the runway, it may have been hundreds of millions of dollars,” he said.
A day earlier the bank had announced that it “wants to auction up to (14) million US dollars”.
The purpose of such dollar auctions is to stabilize the value of the ‘Afghani’, the country’s currency, against the dollar. The “humanitarian aid” here appears to consist of millions of dollars being shipped into a terrorist state to prop up its otherwise worthless currency.
The bank claims to have received “humanitarian aid” of $40 million in hundred dollar bills. And the bank described it as the second shipment of cash that had arrived in one week.
Overall this is the third such shipment amounting to $120 million.
The exact origin of the money is unclear, but the packaging is in English and that together with the currency, suggests that it’s either being sent by the Biden administration or with its consent.
A previous shipment of $40 million in August showed bags of cash being flown in through Ariana Afghan Airlines, which had been used to fly Al Qaeda terrorists, drugs and guns, but has been subsidized to charter hostage evacuation flights by the Biden administration.
In the intervening months it has yet to be clarified where all this cash is actually coming from.
The one thing that is abundantly clear is that the concept of humanitarian aid has been perverted into massive shipments of money into terrorist zones, in violation of sanctions, without even the pretense that the money is buying food, medicine or anything we associate with aid.
Propping up Afghanistan’s economy by providing it with a ready supply of cash has been reinterpreted as humanitarian aid when it’s actually foreign aid. But the Biden administration does not want to admit that it’s providing terrorists with massive amounts of foreign aid.
There’s nothing that Biden won’t do for the Taliban that he won’t classify as humanitarian aid.
In November, Front Page Magazine exclusively revealed that the Biden administration had been working to enable the Taliban to print money. The Biden administration admitted that it was “working hard with international banks to facilitate payment transfers from Afghanistan’s central bank to European printing companies where new banknotes would actually be produced” to “replace what had been crumbling banknotes in Afghanistan.”
What else is the Biden administration moving to the Taliban?
Not only Front Page Magazine or members of Congress, but even the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction can’t get any answers.
The State Department and Samantha Power’s USAID have gone so far as to order their personnel to refuse to cooperate with audits of their Afghanistan spending. State and USAID stonewalled the inspector general’s office, refusing to reveal “funding information regarding its ongoing programs in Afghanistan, citing ongoing consultation with its legal counsel”.
The special inspector general’s office revealed that USAID and the Treasury Department “refused to cooperate… in any capacity.”
In December, Rep. McCaul sent yet another letter to Secretary of State Blinken, Power and Treasury Secretary Yellen, warning that their refusal to cooperate with the special inspector general’s office “is a flagrant violation of the law and part of a lengthy pattern of obstruction by the Biden Administration” .
One of the stonewalled audits, according to a letter from the inspector general’s office to Samantha Power, “evaluates your agencies’ compliance with the laws and regulations prohibiting transfers of funds to members of the Taliban and the Haqqani Network.”
If USAID were in compliance with laws on transferring money to terrorists, it wouldn’t be refusing to cooperate with an audit. Every new revelation about the terror cash pipeline makes the administration look worse. The latest Afghanistan watchdog report strongly suggested that the Taliban had gotten access to $57 million sent to the Afghan government before the fall.
“Once the money was transferred, US agencies lost visibility over those funds and relied on the Afghan government to disburse funds for their intended purposes,” the report warned.
But that $57 million pales in comparison to the over $1 billion in Afghanistan aid.
As bad as Biden’s retreat was, the aftermath is even more troubling. The Biden administration has robbed 9/11 families to fund terrorists. It’s stonewalling an inspector general within the federal government while moving massive amounts of money into a terrorist state.
All of this is happening even as the Taliban are openly using sharia punishments and abusing women. The myth of a kinder, gentler Taliban has fallen apart, but the money keeps coming.
And that’s not all.
A “high-level delegation” that included a top CIA figure met with the Taliban and agreed not to “fund any armed groups or non-state actors in the country”, particularly the Northern Alliance members who had originally helped us liberate Afghanistan.
What if anything have the Taliban offered in exchange for agreeing to betray our allies?
That’s one of the many unanswered questions about what Biden is doing in Afghanistan. The disastrous retreat could look like a comedy of errors, but it’s looking less accidental all the time.
An explosive conclusion to be drawn from its aftermath is that the Biden administration had set out to enable a Taliban takeover and then to prop it up using financial, military and political mechanisms. The stonewalling and the cover-ups, which include trying to classify every substantive congressional briefing, paint a much darker picture about a hidden agenda.
Over a decade ago, Obama set out to topple most of our allies in the Middle East and replace their governments with brutal Islamist tyrannies dedicated to the same values as the Taliban.
His old staffers appear to be continuing Obama’s work in Afghanistan.

The Mullahs’ Public Hangings
The depravity of the theocratic regime knows no bounds.
The depravity of the Iranian theocratic regime knows no bounds, as it has once again resorted to horrific acts of barbarity in an attempt to suppress the nationwide uprising, now into its 87th day. The mullahs’ regime announced on December 12 that they had hanged a young protester in public in the city of Mashhad in northeastern Iran. Majidreza Rahnavard was publicly executed less than three weeks after his arrest for participating in anti-regime protests. Majidreza was hanged from a crane after being lifted slowly into the air and left kicking and struggling as he slowly asphyxiated. He was denied access to legal representation at his trial and severely tortured in prison, suffering a broken arm and other injuries. Afraid that signs of torture on his body would be exposed, the mullahs ordered Majidreza’s body to be buried in secret, without informing his family.
The medieval brutality of Majidreza Rahnavard’s public execution, comes only days after the hanging of Mohsen Shekari, a 23-year-old student arrested during the ongoing protests, tortured into making a confession, then sentenced to death for the mullahs’ sham offense of “waging war against God.” The clerical regime’s resort to torture and execution as they attempt to quell the escalating revolution is testimony to their increasing panic and desperation as they try to cling to power. They are prepared to defy all legal norms and all basic human rights in their vicious retaliatory measures against their own people.The civilized world must hold them to account. More than 700 mostly young men and women have been murdered so far by the regime in their shoot-to-kill policy of confronting the protests. Over 30,000 have been arrested and many more death sentences will be carried out unless the civilized nations of the world intervene.
The execution of the two young protesters has clear echoes of the 1988 massacre of over 30,000 political prisoners in Iran, mostly young male and female supporters of the main democratic movement, the Mojahedin-e Khalq (MEK). They were executed on the orders of the psychotic Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. Iran’s current president, Ebrahim Raisi, is known as ‘The Butcher of Tehran’ for his central role as one of the key members of a ’Death Commission’ that ordered the executions during that notorious massacre. Indeed, it was an order from Raisi to crack down on women who failed to adhere to strict, misogynistic dress codes, that led to the death in custody in September of Mahsa Amini, the young Kurdish girl murdered by the so-called morality police, for failing to wear her hijab properly. Mahsa Amini’s death sparked the nationwide uprising that has now entered its fourth consecutive month and is evolving rapidly into a full-scale revolution.
The current Supreme Leader, the elderly and delusional Ali Khamenei, has repeatedly blamed the MEK for instigating and coordinating the insurrection and is clearly determined, like his predecessor, to have recourse to the public execution of political prisoners as a gruesome warning to Iran’s incensed 85 million population, that their protests will be met by certain death. It is a major miscalculation. For every death of a protester the public has become more enraged. The crowds chant slogans such as: “Death to Khamenei,” “Death to the dictator,” “Bloodthirsty Khamenei, we will bury you,” and “Khamenei is a murderer, his rule is null and void.” The chants have become more radical, calling for the complete overthrow of the regime, as the mostly young protesters have taken to the streets in over 280 cities in Iran. Sick of four decades of repression that has culminated in soaring inflation, increasing unemployment, systematic corruption, discrimination and human rights abuse, the population of Iran has signaled enough is enough.The active participation of Kurds, Balochis, Turks and other national minorities of Iran is an important aspect of the insurrection. They have been chanting “From Kurdistan to Tehran, I will sacrifice my life for Iran”, “From Zahedan to Tehran, I will sacrifice my life for Iran”, and “Shi’ites and Sunnis are brothers who hate the leader to death.”
Students, including thousands of young women from almost all of Iran’s universities, have joined the nationwide insurrection. The main universities are either on strike or, despite repressive measures by the security forces, stage regular demonstrations. They have been joined in solidarity by primary and high school pupils and by shop owners, bazaar merchants, workers and other traders. Truck drivers have taken industrial action across Iran, crippling the already broken economy. The mullahs’ regime is at its weakest point and its demise is imminent.
The UN Security Council, the US and the EU must take immediate action to prevent further acts of barbarism by the fascist, theocratic regime. Rhetoric is not enough. It is now incumbent on the international community to express its outrage and prevent yet more crimes against humanity. They must not hide behind a wall of silence. Tough action is necessary. Iran’s embassies should be closed, and their diplomats expelled. The Ministry of Intelligence & Security (MOIS) and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) should be placed on the terrorist blacklists. The increasingly fanatical and vicious Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and his cohorts must be held to account for crimes against humanity and made to face trial in the international courts. Above all, the West must stand up and be counted. Tehran’s depravity can no longer be tolerated. The West must show their support for the people of Iran, together with their courageous MEK Resistance Units, who are spearheading the insurrection.
Biden’s influence-peddling is consistent with what I wrote in my book, 'Capitol Hills Criminal Underground'
More than three years ago, MedLaw Publishing released my book, “Capitol Hills Criminal Underground” in which I, the book's author, describe a long-running “protection racket” being run by then-Vice President Joe Biden, as well as Attorney General Eric Holder and New York Senator, Chuck Schumer.
The three amigos effectively arranged to have all Wall Street criminal cases directed to the lefty-friendly Southern District of New York, and for the right “payments” the cases would be closed. Money would then go into PACs controlled by Schumer and distributed to all those involved. In return for those payments, there would be no investigations, no prosecutions and no regulatory action. As author, I tracked over $110,000,000 in payments to politicians.
The CIA tracked some of the money-laundering related to the theft by these Wall Street companies and was able to track back the payments to senior DOJ officials and senior politicians like Vice President Joe Biden.
I, and a senior CIA officer, offered this evidence to both FBI Director James Comey and DoJ Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz. They both declined to respond. I filed criminal complaints with the FBI and was told by field agents that senior leadership at the DOJ would not allow anyone to work the criminal complaints.
I want to encourage all Americans to read my book, "Capitol Hill's Criminal Underground" and decide for themselves.
