Omaha, Nebraska's Interfaith Council




[From article]
There is the matter of their denied -- then admitted, then hidden again -- association with known front groups for the Muslim Brotherhood in America: the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) and the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA).
The Tri-Faith Initiative grew out of ISNA’s interfaith programs which have a multi-pronged purpose. First and foremost, these partnerships between mosques and churches or synagogues are intended to lend a mainstream legitimacy to thoroughly radical Islamic Sharia thoughts and practices. Secondly, these relationships serve to shield Islamist apologists from scrutiny as their non-Muslim partners run interference for them in the name of “tolerance.” This phenomenon results in the third purpose: to weaken the faith of non-Muslims to better prepare them for eventual Muslim dominance, as ordered by Mohammed and Allah.
The inaugural speaker at the outset of the Tri-Faith initiative was none other than the then-President of ISNA, Ingrid Mattson, a woman who has gone on to become perhaps the most prolific producer of Islamist propaganda in the nation, through her academic positions and through interfaith projects.
[. . .]
Billing itself as a “non-denominational” Mosque, open to both Sunni and Shiite, the board and membership of this Mosque boast no Shiites whatsoever. In fact, they boast hardly any membership at all.
[. . .]
There are already two Sunni mosques and one Shia mosque in Omaha, and none of them plan to attend or become involved in the Tri-Faith Initiative.
With virtually no connections to the local Muslim community in Nebraska and Western Iowa, one might be forgiven for wondering why tens of millions of dollars are being pumped into this project to serve a group of families numbering less than fifty people.
The Muslim Brotherhood is, of course, behind all of this, but they work behind the scenes. Banned in Egypt in 1949 for their involvement in political assassinations, they have since chosen to operate through front groups, usually modeled on their original structure of a mainstream wing and a secret wing (al Genah el sirry). The mainstream wing puts on the happy face for popular consumption while the secret wing pulls the strings and does the dirty work.
[. . .]
There aren’t any road signs to “Muslim Brotherhood HQ” or membership cards that say “Member in Good Standing in al Genah el sirry,” but these organizations are well known around the world as the foremost purveyors of Islamic subversion and violence.
Al Qaeda, HAMAS, ISIS are all part of al Genah el sirry, just as CAIR, ISNA and the Muslim Students Association (MSA) are integral operations in the mainstream wing that makes the secret wing work.
Congressman Ashford, speaking about the bloody terrorist blasts in Brussels, recently pointed to Omaha’s Tri-Faith Initiative as a solution to such violence. As ridiculous as his statement sounds, he unwittingly tapped into the truth. The only ones who can call a halt to terrorist violence are those who fund them, organize them and give them orders – the mainstream wing of the Muslim Brotherhood. Isn’t is handy that we have a significant headquarters for that wing going in right here in Omaha?

Solution to Divided Population Is Not to Unify Them. Solution Is To Teach Respect and Tolerance For Other Views




The proposed solution to polarization of the population is not to force conformity. Disagreeing may be extreme. But respect and tolerance for dissenting views makes for robust, exciting, interesting and thought provoking debate. Few Americans have ever been challenged with opposing arguments. Fewer were taught to respect people who disagree with them. Encouraging dissent is what leads to truth. 

[From article]
The narrative builds upon the all too apparent fact that there is great discontent and polarization inside the country. No one contests this conclusion. However, the framing of the narrative is turning everything upside down.
The narrative presents the scenario of two poles. The first pole is made up of those who are well-off, successful, and educated. They live in healthy families, and in good neighborhoods with excellent schools, which isolates and buffers them from the rest of America.
[. . .]
On the other side is an underclass composed of those who are poor, uneducated, and neglected. They live in broken families, and in poor neighborhoods with horrible schools. They are joined by blue-collar workers who have lost jobs to immigrants and outsourcing to places like China. They live on the margins of society and are isolated from the other pole.
The two sides share little in common save an increasing animosity. This never-the-twain-shall-meet narrative can be found in Charles Murray’s compelling book, Coming Apart, or in Robert Putnam’s Our Kids. Pundits and columnists repeat and echo versions of this portrayal in diverse media.
[. . .]
The proposed narrative to explain the present electoral cycle would not be based on the battle of the haves versus the have-nots. Rather it holds there is a universal moral crisis that is devastating all society. It is not just polarizing but shattering the nation and its economy into a thousand pieces.
[. . .]
Both groupings see their families being destroyed through divorce and general breakdown. All share in the immoral movies, fashions, drugs, and promiscuity that recognize no class and ravage a social fiber where people no longer pray. Structures across the board are crumbling whether they be governments, families, institutions, or customs.
[. . .]
The narrative that should govern the debate should be one of unity, not division. It should be directed at the moral problems of this universal crisis, not against fellow Americans. The surviving ramparts of the nation’s moral establishment should be fortified, not torn down. People need to return to God as the center of our lives, not the federal government. These are the issues that few dare to mention in the present political circus, but they lie deep within the souls of so many Americans who grieve for the nation.

Canada Ranks First in Freedom, Tolerance




[From article]
O Canada: you might be the land of the free now.
A new study reveals that the United States’ neighbor to the north has the “freest country in the world,” with the greatest tolerance for immigrants worldwide.
Canada’s ranking as the top nation in the world for personal freedom can be found in the Legatum Institute’s 2015 Prosperity Index. The London-based international public policy think tank released its findings Monday.
Typically, a country’s prosperity has been based on its material wealth, but at the Legatum Institute, this data is studied along with quality-of-life metrics.
[. . .]
Since 2009, Canada has risen five places to the top of the personal freedom sub-index: 94 percent of Canadians think they have the freedom to direct the courses of their own lives.
Here are the top 10 countries for personal freedom:
1. Canada
2. New Zealand
3. Norway
4. Luxembourg
5. Iceland
6. Ireland
7. Sweden
8. Denmark
9. Australia
10. Uruguay
The United States ranked 15th worldwide.
[. . .]
Here is the Legatum Institute’s raking of the top 10 most prosperous countries worldwide:
1. Norway
2. Switzerland
3. Denmark
4. New Zealand
5. Sweden
6. Canada
7. Australia
8. The Netherlands
9. Finland
10. Ireland
This time, the United States just missed making the top 10, ranking 11th.

Cambridge, MA High School Education




Did these students learn about the Constitution and laws which guarantee their freedom to choose what to do with their lives? Did they learn tolerance for other ideas about social justice which may conflict with theirs? Did they learn any perspective in which to place their ideas of social justice?

[From article]
During their time at CRLS, graduates represented youth perspectives on committees and councils, organized and facilitated workshops on racial identity and achievement, questioned the city on opportunities for women during Women’s History Month discussions, collected thousands of pounds of food for local pantries, and they walked out of class on Dec. 1, 2014, to take over Harvard Square in protest of racism after the Ferguson grand jury decision.
“We were the first students in over 20 years to have a walkout,” student body President Sydney Fisher said. “Because of us, not just Rindge, but Cambridge as a whole had to reflect on their inner racism.
[. . .]
CRLS kicked off the ceremony held at the Frisoli Field House by welcoming guests and graduates in 14 of the 20 languages spoken by the members of the Class of 2015, including Italian, Arabic, Haitian Creole, Spanish and Portuguese.
According to Fisher, her classmates are destined for great things. They will work on global warming, fight gentrification and end genocide of trans women and men and the Black Lives Matter movement, she said.

Most Humans Still Tolerate Genocide, Mass Murder




[From article]
The Jew has always been the canary in the mine. And now Christ's descendants burn at the hands of Hagar's children as more of G-d's creatures are thrown on the pyre. And mankind looks away yet again while Christian Coptics beseech the world to help them and Jews in France hurriedly pack their bags and flee to the Promised Land to escape the fury of the European jihadist human beasts.
Elie Wiesel continues to be a "still small voice" persisting even when his comrades-in-camp, Primo Levi, Jerzy Kosinski, and Paul Celan committed suicide having endured so much in the concentration camps. We are living in a world where Islamic terrorists revile the “little Satan” and forswear to kill every last Jew. Where Arab leaders would rather let their own people go without water than share a drop of it with the Jews!
[. . .]
Do they not understand that "the test of the morality of a society is what it does for its children?" How can they squander their babies' futures like this? When will maternal instinct trump Islamic terror?
[. . .]
Yet the toxic hate and indifference of the world continues. Moses and Abraham argued with G-d. Holocaust survivors put G-d before a tribunal. What is there left for us to do now?
[. . .]
What perverse instinct is in mankind that it cannot tolerate differences?
[. . .]
And still the Land of Milk and Honey stands in stark contrast to the enemies that surround it. Against all odds, Israel fights the moral blight that surrounds her and continues to use technology to help all of mankind. Israel takes seriously the moral obligation to be a light unto the nations, be they Jew or Gentile, despite the hate spewed at her by so much of the world.
[. . .]
Paranoia is surely the shadow of the intelligent Jew. We are encumbered with memories that need no dates for they are timeless and unremitting.

French Tolerant Immigration Policies Encourage Terrorism





Good thing that the United States is not as tolerant as France. Oh Wait!


[From article]
While France is reeling from the terrorist massacre of 12 people at the Paris offices of a satirical magazine, the country is also "one of the worst … when it comes to rewarding terrorism," lawyer and author Alan Dershowitz told "MidPoint" host Ed Berliner on Newsmax TV Wednesday.
"They play with everybody. They reward every terrorist," Dershowitz said of the French.
"They've never been part of the international campaign against terrorism. They are part of the problem, not part of the solution.
[. . .]
Dershowitz also said that radical Islam enjoys support from "millions of people" in the Muslim world "who support terrorism, who will be applauding what happened today."
"Not tens, hundreds or thousands," he said, "but millions will be supporting what happened today. It's very, very big problem. The reason it has so many supporters is because it works. Terrorism works. It achieves the goals and results. Palestinians would not be getting a state today if it wasn't for their terrorists."

Massachusest Governor Indicates Tolerance For Terror


[From article]
“The U.S. government is killing our innocent civilians but most of you already know that. As a M(uslim) I can’t stand to see such evil go unpunished, we Muslims are one body, you hurt one you hurt us all ... 
(T)he­ ummah (i.e., the Muslim people) is beginning to rise ... Know you are fighting men who look into the barrel of your gun and see heaven, now how can you compete with that? We are promised victory and we will surely get it.”
As the feds said, “This was a clarion call to radical militants to follow in his way.”
Yet Deval claimed he had no idea what the motivation of the “two fellows” was.

Liberal Intolerance in The Name of Tolerance


Tufts also had a free speech zone. I spoke with an assistant Dean there about that and she told me, "We don't allow that stuff here." She meant no criticism of PC speech. I asked to speak with her about it but never did. 

Will also notes that intolerance in the name of tolerance carries beyond the campus. In Cambridge MA where Harvard dominates all aspects of life, there are ordinary citizens who adopt the intolerance of the campus. One lady used to comment to me about my letters in the local paper, where I criticized the local government. She seemed pleased with what I wrote. But subsequently I criticized homosexuals. The next time I saw her she attacked me verbally calling me a hater. I was shocked and simply  moved away from her. This attitude toward me continued for years after that. I realized that it became an attack on women for her. If I criticized homosexuals I must be a wife beater too. It is amazing but that is how it works if you dare to speak in an unacceptable manner the speech that liberals fear becomes your area of comfort. And you become an evil enemy.

Medicalizing Political Opinions

[From article]
"They do that because they were born that way." If you say that about homosexuals, you are tolerant and realistic. If you say it about blacks, you are racist (unless you're black yourself). If you say it about women, you may or may not be sexist, depending on who is manning (er, womanning) the feminist battle stations. If you say it about men, you just might be a writer for Esquire. But if you say it about conservatives, you're a scientist.

Liberal Religious Groups Ignorant of Islam, Tolerate Their Efforts

[From article]
The Islamic Society of North American (ISNA) is an organization linked to the Muslim Brotherhood. ISNA was an un-indicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation trial, the largest terror financing trial ever held. If you go to the ISNA website you find a very interesting list called the Partners of ISNA. Here is a partial list of church Partners:

Evangelical Lutheran Church in America
Presbyterian Church (USA)
The Union for Reform Judaism
United States Conference of Catholic Bishops
United Methodist Church
Unitarian Universalist Association

How do these Partners of ISNA work? They work very hard serving Mohammed and Allah. Their first job is to be ignorant of Islamic doctrine. The Partners never show the slightest sign of knowledge about Islam, except to parrot what their Muslim “handlers” tell them.

Limited Diversity at Harvard

Not only low income students but also students with disabilities are ignored by the diversity police lobby. More importantly since this is an "international" issue, white people make up 16 percent of the world population. Why are they denied minority status and affirmative action privileges? Has anyone at Harvard ever thought about tolerating diversity of opinion? Why is it that children of highly educated, politically connected, often wealthy parents are the ones who benefit from affirmative action and diversity programs?

Senator Promotes Intolerance in the Name of Tolerance

“Our Constitution protects the free exercise of religion for all Americans,” [Senate Majority Whip] Mr. [Richard] Durbin [D-IL] said. This is a dubious misleading statement by a US Senator. Mormons were required to change their practices by the US Supreme Court. Under Muslim laws other religions are not tolerated. They cannot be allowed to practice an intolerant religion. Durbin's misguided hearing needs to emphasize that enigma.

[From article]
"In 2009, the latest FBI statistics available, anti-Islamic hate crimes accounted for 9.3 percent of the 1,376 religiously motivated hate crimes recorded. That's far less than the 70.1 percent that were anti-Jewish.

Cameron on Segregation, Tolerance

British Prime Minister, David Cameron, saying multiculturalism has failed in Europe. "We have even tolerated these segregated communities behaving in ways that run counter to our values. So when a white person holds objectionable views -- racism, for example -- we rightly condemn them. But when equally unacceptable views or practices have come from someone who isn't white, we've been too cautious frankly even fearful to stand up to them."

MA State Senate Campaign

On Thursday August 5, 2010 at about 4:15 PM a volunteer for MA State senate candidate Tim Flaherry called to ask if I was planning to vote for Flaherty. I asked if what Flaherty would do for me. The young man said Flaherty promoted rewriting the districts to make more sense. I observed that is a national problem of abuse by politicians. I asked him about addressing one-party government in MA. The young man said there were five Republican state senators and that was too many. There is no reasoning with a young man who does not support a two party political system. These are young people who are raised opposing dissent. That explains why there is so much intolerance in MA which promotes itself as the most tolerant. Yes, intolerance in the name of tolerance. That is like criminal abuse in the name of good.
