The great thing about being an Islamist in the Ms. Marvel era is that no matter what awful things they catch you saying, there will be no consequences. After some initial awkwardness, everyone will back away for a few months or a year... and then the party is back on.
When Bernie Sanders appeared with Imam Omar Suleiman, the Imam’s hateful views became an issue and the Sanders campaign temporarily backed away. These days you’ll find virtually no mention of it. Google is helpfully suppressing search results on the subject and so there’s a magical clean slate.
And now Suleiman’s going to be speaking at Oakland University on the challenge of being a Muslim in America. It’s tough when they won’t let you kill your daughters.
“Sisters, you know what happens with a really jealous Dad? He kills you and he kills the guy,” a smiling Imam Suleiman told Muslim female college students at an Islamist youth event. “Even if they don’t have a man who’s going to be a real man, Allah has more than any man.”
“Society’s welfare always takes precedence over the individual’s welfare,” Imam Suleiman had said, when discussing concubines and sex slaves. “It supersedes the outrage of a woman – the very real possibility that a woman in that situation had that option not been there – would have most likely been put in a situation of prostitution.”
And then, making it clear that he was talking about sex slavery of the ISIS variety, he discussed a situation where “a prisoner of war was to come in, if a woman was to come in that situation”.
In Islam, girls and women are captured as “prisoners of war” and raped by Muslim men. As the many Yazidi girls and women raped by ISIS were. As were American women like Kayla Mueller.
“The punishment for theft,” Imam Omar Suleiman said at a Sharia Council Panel, “which would be the cutting off of the hand, that’s not just any theft, Allah wants to protect the life of the one who had stolen... but a skilled thief.”
Earlier in the conflict, Omar had tweeted, “God willing on this blessed night as the 3rd Intifada begins, the beginning of the end of Zionism is here. May Allah help us overcome this monster, protect the innocent of the world, and accept the murdered as martyrs. ameen #48kMarch #3rdIntifada.”
He later tweeted, “The people of #Gaza made us proud. You refused to let terror break you and we refuse to let Zionist media silence you.”
Islamists like Omar can spew the worst hateful filth and then be embraced by leftists and invited to college campuses.
