Islamophobia is a HUGE problem according to the White House. And there needs to be a national strategy about it…ASAP.

Today, he and Vice President Harris are announcing that their Administration will develop the first-ever U.S. National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia in the United States. We look forward to continuing our work with community leaders, advocates, members of Congress, and more to develop the strategy – which will be a joint effort led by the Domestic Policy Council and the National Security Council – and counter the scourge of Islamophobia and hate in all its forms. For too long, Muslims in America, and those perceived to be Muslim, such as Arabs and Sikhs, have endured a disproportionate number of hate-fueled attacks and other discriminatory incidents. We all mourn the recent barbaric killing of Wadea Al-Fayoume, a 6-year-old Palestinian American Muslim boy, and the brutal attack on his mother in their home outside Chicago.

Islamophobia is so rampant here in the U.S. that Kamala issued a serious statement. 

On the same day Hamas leadership goes on international TV and declares their goal is to erase Jews and Israel off the planet. Just stunning. https://t.co/s0YG6SQyYD

And, outrageously tone deaf when one considers that the Hamas leadership has called for October 7 to happen again and again until Israel is obliterated. 

“The al-Aqsa Flood is just the first time and there will be a second, a third, a fourth because we have the determination, the resolve and the capabilities to fight,” Hamad said in an Oct. 24 Lebanese television interview republished by British outlets Wednesday.

Hamad said the terrorist organization is willing to “pay a price.”

“We are called a nation of martyrs and are proud to sacrifice martyrs,” Hamad said. “Israel is a country that has no place on our land. We must remove that country because it constitutes a security, military and political catastrophe to the Arab and Islamic nations, and must be finished.”

And yet, the Biden administration is now laser-focused on fighting…Islamophobia. They are pandering to a very few, such as the protestors in Minnesota who greeted Joe yesterday. The CAIR chapters there organized protests slamming Biden for any support of Israel, and threatened to abandon Joe at the polls if he doesn’t cave to their demands to support Gaza and drop all support of Israel. 

That would be totally fine with me. The fewer votes Joe and Kamala get (if he makes it to the general), the better. That said, the fact that the Biden Administration’s attempt to gaslight us into believing that there is rampant Islamophobia happening in this country is utterly maddening. 

It is ANTISEMITISM that is running rampant throughout this country and around the world. We have documented far too many instances in these last three weeks. 

And what has the Biden Administration done? Given lip service to the issue. “It’s bad.” “Don’t do that anymore.” “Pretty please with cherries on top, stop tearing down those posters.”

Man those kidnapped kids were really asking for it

Or blatantly refusing to provide answers about the Pro-Hamas DHS employee as Mayorkas did yesterday during the Senate hearing. 

Keep in mind, as Carol wrote yesterday, this was the SAME hearing in which Christopher Wray informed us that they literally have ZERO idea as to how many terrorists from Hamas or other organizations openly walked into the U.S. through our non-existent border. 

Captured Hamas terrorists have admitted they were told to go after everyone and slaughter them all. Yet people across the U.S. as well as many who work for the State Department or UN are either claiming it is Israel who is committing genocide or demanding that they surrender. 

Yet, with all that, we don’t have an AntiSemitism problem, we have an Islamophobia issue??!! The statistics, as RedState reports, say otherwise. 

A Cornell student is under arrest for threatening to kill Jews on campus. The Yale Daily News claimed Hamas attacking women and beheadeding children was unsubstantiated. The posters of kidnapped Israeli children had Hitler mustaches drawn on their faces. Women feminist, queer and transgender scholars, led by Angela Davis, say Israel is committing war crimes. They refuse to realize that Muslim religion abhors gays and lesbians.

Now, the editor of the Harvard Law Review is on camera with his cohorts harassing a Jewish student.

College professors across the country are slamming Israel and calling for a cease-fire. But let’s pivot with tons of urgency to discuss Islamophobia! 

Never mind the fact that many Pro-Hamas groups are calling for boycotts of Jewish businesses. 

“Restaurants and businesses claiming to sell ‘Israeli’ food … are part of an ongoing colonial campaign of stealing, appropriating and profiting off Palestinian food and culture,” said the coalition, whose organizers did not return a request for comment.

A spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), Corey Saylor, said that he was not familiar with the Philadelphia boycott but that “It is 100 percent on the table to criticize supporters of Israeli apartheid.” He added that too often, “people engaging in criticism of the state of Israel have been accused of bias.”

I can’t seem to find any reports of  Muslim-owned businesses under attack, even though the media says there’s been a spike in Islamophobic incidents. As for documentation of those incidents…I can’t find anything. Meanwhile, as they move to combat hate against Muslims, the White House refuses to classify antisemitic threats or actions as domestic terrorism. 

"The comments, made by National Security Council spokesman John Kirby during the White House press briefing, ran in stark contrast to parents concerned about their children's education previously being described as 'domestic terrorists'"https://t.co/RXIJfdaj81

Ultimately, this move by the Biden Administration should make it very clear to the Jewish world. They are not your friends and your safety will never by a priority of theirs.
