Funny Muslims Want to "Bigotize" You For Seeing What They Refuse To--The Real and Present Danger of Islamic Supremacism

Not long ago I posted about an appearance on CBC radio by two young Muslim comedians. The pair had made it their mission to prove to knuckle-dragging Americans in fly-over states that, despite what they may have heard in the "Islamophobic" media, Muslims are entirely non-threatening. The name of their comedy show--The Muslims are Coming! --harkens back to a Norman Jewison film from back in the '60s, The Russians are Coming, The Russians are Coming. Of course, that was at the height of the Cold War, when Soviet Russia really was a threat to America, and no one would accuse the yokels in that film of being "Sovietophobes" for acknowledging the civilizational split, even when the small town sillies become semi-hysterical when a Russian sub gets stuck offshore, and a bunch of clearly non-threatening Russians turn up.

No, as mad as those days of M.A.D. were, they were not nearly as mad--and maddening--as our time, when any acknowledgement of the obvious, i.e. that Islamic supremacism is at the root of all sorts of bloody mayhem, is seen (and damned) as a function of ignorance and bigotry.

Hey, the best defense is a good offense, right?

Re The Muslims are Coming, Mark Tapson had a run-in with one of two comedians, and writes about it here:

In the month since my [first The Muslims are Coming!] article appeared, here is what the world has witnessed of Islam: 

A photographer documented the gruesome beheading of a bound young victim at the hands of Syrian jihadists, who later slit the throat of a Christian for refusing to deny Christ, then mocked his widow about it. Jihadists attacked the U.S. embassy in Afghanistan. Shi’ite Muslims bombed 30 Sunnis outside an Iraqi mosque; Sunnis returned the favor a few days later, and then they each took another turn, and on and on. Al Qaeda’s Ayman al-Zawahiri called on Muslims to launch attacks on American soil and to “bleed America economically.” As part of the ongoing, intensifying genocide of Christians under Islam, Muslims murdered two Christians in Egypt for refusing to pay the  jizya tax, and two more in Libya for refusing to convert to Islam. A Catholic priest was doused with acid by a Muslim in Zanzibar. A Yemen thief was condemned to have his foot and hand amputated according to sharia. Turkey sentenced a pianist to prison for “insulting Islam.” The West-hating Boko Haram slaughtered upwards of 160 people in Nigeria, and then later massacred another 65 students while they slept. Afghan jihadists posing as our allies murdered three NATO soldiers. Muslims killed 60 Christians and wounded 100 more outside church services in Pakistan. CAIR was caught carrying out a criminal money laundering scheme. Hamas called for a third intifada against Israel. Islamic militants killed 19 in a bus bomb in Pakistan and 33 more in a market with a car bomb. An International Conference on Islamophobia in Istanbul promoted its anti-free speech agenda. A bill was passed in Iran which allows men to marry their adopted daughters as young as 13. Last but not least, there was the subhuman barbarism of the Kenyan mall massacre, in which non-Muslims were singled out for horrific torture and murder, and many dozens were left dead. 

Savagery of the lowest order. Totalitarianism. Raging violence against infidels and Muslims alike. This doesn’t even touch on the progress of civilizational jihad that is being waged so successfully against the too-clueless West. 

Yet apologists like pro-Palestinian activist Dean Obeidallah [one of the "funny" The Muslims Are Coming! Muslims], who performed at a CAIR banquet featuring the Brotherhood-linked, Islamophobia propagandist Wajahat Ali and radical imam Siraj Wahhaj, who supports violent jihad, won’t acknowledge the problematic doctrines that give rise to the examples I listed above. They place the blame for Islam’s ugly reputation these days on “Islamophobia” and the media (presumably they think that the media are either making up incidents, or should not report them). 

Obeidallah wants you to blind yourself to the dangerous fundamentalism he is covering for; he wants you to believe you are an anti-Muslim bigot for raising concerns about Islam, even though Muslims themselves are dying at the hands of the militants; he wants you to view his The Muslims Are Coming!, the very title of which mocks the notion that Islam is a threat, to laugh off any legitimate concerns, and to join hands and harmonize across the mountainside like a Coca-Cola commercial – while Islamic supremacism advances. I’m afraid I can’t muster a sense of humor about that.

Me neither.
