Children At Philadelphia Muslim Society Say They Will "Chop Off Heads" For Allah

by Tyler Durden

Footage has surfaced of Muslim children at an Islamic center in Philadelphia saying that they would sacrifice themselves, "chop off heads" and even kill for the "army of Allah".

The Muslim American Society (MAS) Islamic center in Philadelphia posted the video to its Facebook page in celebration of "Ummah Day". Young children are seen in the video wearing Palestinian scarves and reading poetry about killing for Allah.

The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) told Fox News: 

"These are not isolated incidents; they are happening in major centers of the country – including in Pennsylvania."

MEMRI translated the video, where children can be heard singing: "The land of the Prophet Muhammad's Night Journey is calling us. Our Palestine must return to us."




One girl even talks about martyrs sacrificing their lives to conquer Jerusalem. In the video, she says:

 "We will defend the land of divine guidance with our bodies, and we will sacrifice our souls without hesitation. We will chop off their heads, and we will liberate the sorrowful and exalted Al-Aqsa Mosque. We will lead the army of Allah fulfilling His promise, and we will subject them to eternal torture."

MAS Philly belongs to the Muslim American Society, which has 42 chapters in the U.S.

The MAS put out the following statement on Friday: “While we celebrate the coming together of different cultures and languages, not all songs were properly vetted. This was an unintended mistake and an oversight in which the center and the students are remorseful. MAS will conduct an internal investigation to ensure this does not occur again. As a faith-based organization dedicated to moving people to strive for God-consciousness and a just and virtuous society, we affirm our long-standing position on our shared values of humanity. We stand resolutely in our condemnation of hate, bigotry, Islamophobia, xenophobia, racism, anti-Semitism and all the illnesses of hate that plague our society.”

And, as you may have guessed, CNN was right on the case, reporting its "most trusted name in news" take. Or not.

Biden confused, says 'Thatcher' called him about Trump

by -NO AUTHOR-

(American Mirror) Joe Biden is so popular among world leaders, he’s having a hard time keeping them all straight.

Biden, who would be 78 on Inauguration Day, told a small group of donors in Columbia, South Carolina on Saturday that “14 heads of state” have contacted him, and “voiced concerns about Trump.”

Bloomberg reports: That list included Margaret Thatcher, he said, before correcting what he called a “Freudian slip,” that he was actually referring to current British Prime Minister Theresa May.

The post Biden confused, says 'Thatcher' called him about Trump appeared first on WND.

John Bolton Threatens Iran With 'Unrelenting Force': Reason Roundup

by Elizabeth Nolan Brown

"The United States is not seeking war with the Iranian regime, but." So says a not-so-reassuring Sunday statement from National Security Advisor John Bolton.

Call it what you will, but it sure seems like Bolton and the Trump administration are trying to entangle us in another dick-swinging Middle Eastern military adventure.

The U.S. is sending a bomber task force and a Carrier Strike Group toward Iran, according to the statement. Bolton called it a way to send an "unmistakable message" that if the wrong people do something we don't like (to anybody), "the Iranian regime" will "be met with unrelenting force."

Ahhh, there's that sociopathic old "America: World Police" spirit that Bolton perfected during the George W. Bush years.

Invoking increasing tensions between Iran and the U.S., Bolton said "we are fully prepared to respond to any attack, whether by proxy, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps or regular Iranian forces."

As White House Reporter Andrew Feinberg (and many others) have pointed out, "the US has pretty much constantly had a carrier on station in that area since the 1980s," so the fact that it's being sent there is pretty much business as usual. The fact that Bolton felt the need to put out a belligerent statement about it isn't.


FREE MINDS

Bartenders in Texas must now be clairvoyant if they want to avoid criminal charges. At least that's the message the state seems to be sending with the arrest of 27-year-old Lindsey Glass, who served drinks to a man named Spencer Hight before he went on a shooting spree that killed eight people. Glass has been charged with a misdemeanor for violating a Texas ban on selling alcohol "to an habitual drunkard or an intoxicated or insane person."


FREE MARKETS

The Wall Street Journal takes a somber look at newspapers in the U.S. "Local papers have suffered sharper declines in circulation than national outlets and greater incursions into their online advertising businesses from tech giants such as Alphabet Inc.'s Google and Facebook Inc," the paper reports.

The result has been a parade of newspaper closures and large-scale layoffs. Nearly 1,800 newspapers closed between 2004 and 2018, leaving 200 counties with no newspaper and roughly half the counties in the country with only one, according to a University of North Carolina study.

Meanwhile, about 400 online-only local news sites have sprung up to fill the void, disproportionately clustered in big cities and affluent areas, the UNC study found.

Booker wants all gun owners to get federal approval. The Democratic candidates seem to be in competition for the most overbearing gun policy proposals:


QUICK HITS

  • The Cat in the Hat is right about parenting, writes Katherine Mangu-Ward.
  • "Are we cool? We like to think we're cool," the Transportation Security Administration declares on Instagram. It gets worse from there
  • That word…I do not think it means what you think it means:

  • Former Trump fixer Michael Cohen is headed to prison today.
  • Uber and Lyft drivers are going on strike this Wednesday in Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, and San Francisco.
  • A new report shows a stunning lack of oversight in the New York foster care system.
  • Not everyone is on board with plans to legalize (and commercialize) D.C.'s decriminalized marijuana scene. "You can grow it here, you can have six plants which actually is a lot," says Will Jones of the group Smart Approaches to Marijuana. "You can share it with people. If you want to do it, have fun. Grow it, use it, great. It's legal. But to say that we should allow commercial industry, that's a step too far."
  • "President Trump upended what appeared to be steady progress toward reaching a trade pact after he threatened on Sunday to impose still more tariffs on Chinese-made goods unless Beijing moves closer to a deal," reports The New York Times.
  • Former Obama administration official Mark Morgan is Trump's pick to run U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Maria Bartiromo: ‘Really Disappointing Behavior from Robert Mueller’

by Colby Hall

Maria Bartiromo addressed Tuesday’s bombshell news that Special Counsel Robert Mueller sent a letter expressing disapproval to Attorney General Bill Barr for the manner in which the later ostensibly summarized the findings of a 400+ paged report in a four-page letter that gave President Donald Trump the best possible interpretation of Mueller’s findings.

The Fox Business morning show host introduced Fox News legal analyst Andrew Napolitano to provide his insight, to which he defended the manner in which Mueller privately expressed his disapproval to Barr six weeks ago, details of which have not come out until Tuesday, perhaps not so coincidentally the day before Barr is set to appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee for a public hearing.

As the rather predictable segment wrapped, Bartiromo summarized the discussion by saying “Sounds like Politics to me.” She then added, without further explanation “this is disappointing in terms of Robert Mueller’s behavior.”

Bartiromo has often expressed views in support of President Trump so perhaps this summary comment is not surprising coming from the Fox Business host. It is surprising, however, in the context of what Napolitano had just said on her airwaves.
