Islamophobia is on the rise—here's the proof.

I've been updating a thread which documents attacks on Muslims, mosques, and people of color perceived to be Muslim, since the attacks on Paris. The thread has been growing at an alarming rate and I've decided that while I will continue to publish updates on Twitter that it would be easier to share and parse through if I created a one-page entry on my website. If there are any I missed, or if you would like to add your own, please contact me.

A security firm hired by a mosque in northern Virginia quit, saying that they can no longer protect them
December 11, 2015

Comment: From that story:

The situation seems so dire that officials at the All Dulles Area Muslim Society in northern Virginia said the security firm they hired to protect the mosque quit this week. "They said, 'We don't know what's going to happen, we can't protect you,'" said Imam Mohamed Magid, the mosque's leader. ADAMS has been vandalized twice in past years, according to members, but not recently.

Magid's comments on Monday came minutes after Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, at a press conference at ADAMS, pleaded with Americans not to "throw a net of suspicion over Muslims." Asked if Homeland Security will provide extra protection for mosques, a spokesman referred CNN to state and local law enforcement agencies.

Which means no.

Comment: Very sadly and tragically for many, the sickness otherwise known as Islamophobia can only get worse. And we only have the US Government and allied proponents of the War of Terror to thank for it.

Islam will vanish, that´s for fact. Reason is its bane.

13 Spinning Spirals · 2015-12-14T06:16:57Z

Your comment is precisely what Roqayah Chamseddine, the author of this article, is referring to -- Islamophobia, Hate Crimes, and Bigotry. You have made similar comments to several articles during these past few days.

Your comments sound like those of a Hasbara Troll. And, speaking of Hasbara, if you made these sorts of comments with respect to Jews or Zionists, your words would be construed as Anti-Semitic. However, because the new game in town has become inciting hatred towards Muslims and Islam, you may 'believe' (I would normally use the word 'think', but in your case I see that you obviously do NOT 'think') that others here share your attitude. I can assure you that we do not.

This article, and others like it, are for the purposes of demonstrating the insidious creeping acceptance of these attitudes into 'normal' social discourse. These articles are meant to reveal the pathologizing ponerization process against normal people by the psychopaths in power. It's the Nazi's all over again. And you, falcor, are showing us how very successful that ponerization process is working in your case. Stop being a Dupe of Darkness.

I usually refrain from attempting to be reasonable with Evil. But, just in case you do have two neurons firing in that brain of yours, would you please use them to examine your attitude towards a group you seem to be so afraid of that you wish they would vanish.

I, personally, would much prefer that those of you who share your hate-filled, Islamophobic, bigoted, unreasonable beliefs would vanish. In other words -- please. poof. off.

Freedom of Speech is not license to spew insulting, racist drivel against others.

Thank you.

I too, am weary of seeing your anti-Muslim rhetoric on these pages. That is one of the reasons we go on SOTT.NET for news, to escape the MSM fanning the flames. I second 13 Spinning Spirals - poof off. Go spread your hate elsewhere if you can't learn how your attitude only makes things worse.

This is inevitable

The rich have conspired to let within the borders of Western nations large populations alien to those native to them. They have done this for no high purpose, but merely for cheap labour in the short term, and to elect a new people more amenable to dictatorial control than Anglo-Europeans in the long term. Historically, immigration works out in one of a very few ways: in small numbers, assimilation to the local culture; in larger numbers, the sectioning off of a new nation out of the land of the old; and in the largest numbers, the subsumption and annihilation of the old culture by the new. You can emote about this all you please, call people racist, fascist, and Nazi for pointing it out, say they must surely be cretinous inbred hillbilly confederates, but you can't change reality by wishing it were so (as this site has been pointing out from the beginning). Lets not forget "Islamaphobia" ... and since when did "fear of submission" count as a character flaw?

Ask yourself this: why on the one hand, promote an ideology of ethnomasochism amongst Euro-Americans, in order to defuse opposition to immigration ... while on the other, provoke wars in the very countries to which the borders are enthusiastically being thrown open? Obviously, the elite are making war on a vastly larger and bloodier scale all but inevitable with these policies, policies which moreover are all but guaranteed to see the defeat of the West and the loss of all that has ever been praiseworthy in it. Opposing the criminal waste of the wars overseas is perfectly coherent with an opposition to allowing into our countries more of the people on whom we have been forced to make war. And one might note that the propaganda is always in favour of more war abroad, but is quite specific about the evils and dangers of Islamophobia/fear-of-submission at home.

The most merciful thing to do at this point is to refuse further Muslim immigration and to begin repatriating Muslims back to their lands and peoples of origin. Yes, I know: you'll call me a stupid Nazi for saying that. I don't care any more. The alternative, for anyone who knows history, is blood, both ours and theirs, with the final outcome being the destruction of one or the other genetic lineages. This can still be largely avoided, more or less peacefully, if they're sent back. To insist on keeping the borders open, to insist that somehow disparate and even diametrically opposed cultures can coexist in the same territory, is to engage in wishful thinking that plays right into the hands of 4D STS forces who are licking their chops over the conflagration they've been carefully preparing, in no small part by cultivating a totalitarian war machine of a religion they sprouted in the fevered mind of a 7th century pedophilic warlord.

This is unlikely to happen, because too many whites have been too heavily indoctrinated with a reflexive ethnomasochism, called 'antiracism'. This is effective on the white political class, the white media, and on academics, but is a spent force in the white working class as a whole, as evidenced by the many incidents tallied above (as to non-whites, the tactic was never intended for them: they are neither held to the standards of 'antiracism' nor expected to behave ethnomasochistically). The polarization in society between elites and the rest is quite thorough, as this site has extensively documented, and will have awful consequences of its own, worse the longer peaceful means of dissent are neutralized. Thus, it is all too likely that when the situation follows its inevitable course, it will be shockingly bloody. If it is true that this cannot be prevented, wringing our hands about it will accomplish nothing, and the only question that matters is: what, then, to do when it manifests?

Levi · 2015-12-14T09:31:38Z

The most merciful thing to do at this point is to join with Muslims and fight the Elite (mostly ours) that brought this situation in first place. Then everything will get to back to 'nice'.

I don't agree

I don't think this was done for no high purpose. It is pretty obvious that ISIS is a Mossad operation, they are trying to deflect the hatred from themselves to the Muslims and to facilitate even further the divide between Shia and Sunnis, following the principles "divide and rule" and "the enemy of our enemy is our friend". And Turkey and Saudi Arabia are playing along with Mossad because ultimately it is all about money, not faith. Whoever thinks that the floods of refugees arriving exactly at this time is a coincidence is a fool. They have been released with a purpose to incite even more hatred. How come up until 2015 hundreds of refugees have crossed the Mediterranean but were always shipped back by the Italians and Greek, whilst now they are lead into the heart of Europe? Could anybody answer that question?
The Israelis are buying ISIS oil, they are caring for their wounded, their agents have been found amongst the fighters, what other proofs do we need?
