‘Guaranteed to offend’: Leftists unravel when U.S. senator repeats what Islamists already have confirmed!
Leftists, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, California state Sen. Scott Weiner, Sen. Ed Markey, and others, have unraveled simply because U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., made a statement that essentially repeated the ideologies that Islamists already have confirmed.
That is that Islam is in America not to assimilate but to conquer.
The details were provided by Robert Spencer in a column at PJMedia.
He’s a fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center and has authored 32 books including “The Politically Incorrect Guide is Islam (and the Crusades).” And he directs Jihad Watch, a monitor on Islamist violence.
Tuberville said, “Islam is not a religion. It’s a cult. Islamists aren’t here to assimilate. They’re here to conquer.”
Islam is not a religion. It’s a cult. Islamists aren’t here to assimilate. They’re here to conquer.
Stop worrying about offending the pearl clutchers.
We’ve got to SEND THEM HOME NOW or we’ll become the United Caliphate of America.

The ideologies of Islam, the insistence on conquering and killing, already routinely is the subject of satire online:

Spencer’s comments came in the aftermath of the Bondi Beach Islamist terror attack in Australia and the shooting at Brown University where the killer allegedly screamed “allahu akbar” while shooting. Also, the ISIS murders of two American service members in Syria and the “Muslim student at the University of Delaware who plotted a jihad massacre of campus police.”
Tuberville added, “Stop worrying about offending the pearl clutchers. We’ve got to SEND THEM HOME NOW or we’ll become the United Caliphate of America.”
The comment, he said, was “guaranteed … to offend.”
Indeed, there was a ‘great clutching of pearls throughout the land,” the report said.
Markey responded, “These are hateful lies. Islamophobia has no place in our society. MAGA Republicans should stop spewing the kind of hate that divides us and foments violence.”
Wiener soon joined the chorus:
It’s unwise to respond to every dumb ass bigoted thing people say on the internet, but when a United States Senator — albeit the dumbest United States Senator — calls for denaturalization & deportation of an entire religion, you have to call it out as the evil it is. pic.twitter.com/UaZyX8GhUE

And so did Cortez:
The normalization and acceptance of Islamophobia in our politics is disgusting.
Our Muslim neighbors are not Republicans’ scapegoats for antisemitic attacks and Trump’s failed policies.
We must absolutely condemn Islamophobia loudly and hold those perpetuating it accountable. https://t.co/kuYOILzR66

Not to be outdone, Sen. Chuck Schumer blasted out, “An outrageous, disgusting display of islamophobia from Sen. Tuberville.”
But Spencer pointed out Tuberville “is simply saying what Islamic texts say.”
For example, Pakistani Islamic scholar Maulana Maududi confirmed: “The purpose for which Muslims are required to fight is not, as one might think, to compel the unbelievers into embracing Islam. Rather, its purpose is to put an end to the suzerainty of the unbelievers so that the latter are unable to rule over people. The authority to rule should only be vested in those who follow the True Faith; unbelievers who do not follow this True Faith should live in a state of subordination.”
He added, “The unbelievers are required to pay jizyah (poll tax) in return for the security provided to them as the dhimmis (“Protected People”) of an Islamic state. Jizyah [a religion-based poll tax] symbolizes the submission of the unbelievers to the suzerainty of Islam.”
Spencer pointed out, “Muslim leaders make political and supremacist statements and boast of their imminent conquest of the West on a regular basis. They didn’t get this idea from Tuberville, and it isn’t some irrational prejudice to take note of Islam’s supremacist imperative. The leftists who are outraged at Tuberville are deliberately ignoring the principal question: Is what he said about Islam’s will to conquer true? If so, what do they propose to do about it?”
