Ilhan Omar - Imgflip

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) says it’s been calling for the government to appoint a special envoy to monitor and combat “Islamophobia” for two decades, but with President Biden in office and lawmakers led by Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) promoting the issue, it is hopeful of success.

Omar and Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.) sent a letter to Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Wednesday, urging him to create a special envoy, and asking him to “specifically include anti-Muslim violence per se” in the State Department’s next annual human rights report.

They joined several Democratic colleagues and CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad at a press conference on Capitol Hill Wednesday to announce the initiative.

  • When another race of people come to a country and try to change it's culture, then I don't like those people.  In fact, when they begin hurthing my country, I am ready to fight back.  No one can serve two masters or two countries.  They either get on  board with our way of life or just get the f____ out. That goes for Islamic, Mexican, English, South Africian, Chinese, Japanese, Germans, Italians, Greeks and all the rest.  Welcome to our shores, but that is were the old country is left.  

  • The United States of America was created, established and founded upon Judeo/Christian Beliefs without one iota of "Muslim" consideration. Our 1st Amendment guarantees Freedom of Worship and Choice of Worship,  not the changing nor re-wording, adding or subtracting from Our Constitution, the Foundation Law of Our Republic!

  • There is no Islamophobia because Muslims think there is no truth but theirs. Convert or die.

  • NO MUSLIM should EVER have been elected to any office of our govt.

  • WHY THE F_CK IS C.A.I.R. STILL IN OUR COUNTRY??? They should ALL be run out of our country on a rail, TARRED and FEATHERED, PERIOD!

  • How did we get people that hate our country, controlling our Government? I don't see race OR color. What I DO see is people that refuse to assimilate! Our country has no room for people like this. 
       
    Theodore Roosevelt’s ideas on immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907.

       “In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American…There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag… We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language… and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”

  • What Islamophobia?  I don't know anyone who is against law abiding Islamic peoples who are in this country leagally and abide by our laws.  But groups like CAIR and people like Omar don't want to play by the rules or our laws.  They I am against, but it has nothing to do with the religion; it has to do with rhetoric and action.  

    I have a strange feeling if you compared crimes against Islamics against crimes against Asians; the crimes against Asian would be much higher.
