PBS Obviously Makes The Iran War All About “Islamophobia” Here In The US

How many times have we seen this? Within days of 9/11 the Credentialed Media was yammering about Islamophobia with the help of CAIR and other Islamist groups. Same thing after the 7/7 bombings in England. After the Pulse nightclub shooting. After the 10/7 attack in Israel. And so many other times. So, this really isn’t surprising
For U.S. Muslims, immigration crackdowns, new war and anti-Muslim rhetoric cloud Ramadan
Midway through Ramadan, Muslims across the United States are striving to maintain the holy month’s traditional mix of prayers and festive spirit under a cloud of worrisome events.
The federal government’s immigration crackdown has affected many of their communities. Virulent anti-Muslim rhetoric is surging. And now the Middle East — where many have loved ones — is buffeted by the Iran war.
Most Iranians are celebrating the war, wanting the Iranian regime to be eliminated. Especially the women.
In Paterson, New Jersey — home to one of the country’s highest per capita Muslim populations — 18-year-old Haneen Alatiyat regrets that fear and uncertainty are keeping many community members from gathering to embrace Ramadan’s communal traditions.
“The meaning of the holiday is to be together with the people you love,” said Alatiyat, who is half Palestinian, half Jordanian.
“Unfortunately, because of the ICE raids that are happening, people don’t want to do that,” she added, speaking outside the Islamic Center of Passaic County in Paterson about Immigration and Customs Enforcement actions happening under President Donald Trump. It’s the mosque where she worships every year with family during Ramadan.
If you’re here illegally, well, yeah, you should be scared. If you’re here on any other legal provision other than being a citizens you should be concerned, because you can be ordered out. And, yeah, so many Palestinians are rooting for the Iranian regime.
Paterson’s Palestinian community — one of the largest outside the Middle East — had been grieving loved ones and trying to help the survivors of the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza even before the latest anxiety-fueling developments.
Yeah, well, maybe they shouldn’t have been supporting Hamas, which was backed by Iran? But, then, Palestinians hate Israel and Jews.
“This Ramadan has already been heavy for many families in our community with the immigration crackdowns,” said Rania Mustafa, executive director of the Palestinian American Community Center in Clifton, New Jersey.
These same people will demand that Christmas and other holidays not be celebrated in public. They will complain to companies to cancel Christmas parties. They will whine when people eat in public during Ramadan. They will complain that people eat pork.
Coinciding with Ramadan, some Muslim groups have issued know-your-rights guidance for navigating immigration enforcement interactions, including for mosques. The Muslim Public Affairs Council, for example, created a safety guide.
Unshockingly, PBS cites a group, the MPAC, which is an Islamic supremacist group that loathes Israel and Jews, which took the side of Islamic terrorist groups, who didn’t want the US to respond after 9/11, and so much more, including ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and Islamic terrorists.
BTW, for Iranian people in Iran and around the world they aren’t that religious, with under 40% identifying as Muslim, and 60% do not pray.
