pamelagellerreport--2020-05-31--Palestinian Authority’s Supreme Sharia Judge Invokes Qur’an: “Kill Them Wherever You Find Them”

Palestinian Media Watch reported Tuesday that Mahmoud Al-Habbash , the Supreme Sharia Judge and Chairman of the Supreme Council for Sharia Justice of the Palestinian Authority , recently declared on official Palestinian Authority TV that “ if someone comes to attack me…I am commanded to fight him…as Prophet [ Muhammad ] said and as this [ Qur ’ an ] verse said : ‘ And kill them wherever you find them.
’ ” And so here again we see it : supporters of the “ Palestinian ” jihad consistently frame their war against Israel in Islamic terms .
Al-Habbash said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me … my home… my land… my homeland… my property… my honor… my family… your existence… your rights… your souls , what must be done ?
I am commanded to fight him .
I am commanded to confront him , I am commanded to resist him , and I am allowed to kill him if necessary as Prophet [ Muhammad ] said and as this verse said : ‘ And kill them wherever you find them.
’ [ Qur ’ an 2:191 and 4:89 , cf .
9:5 ] …as long as they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and also to kill them.
” Those “ kill them ” verses are not isolated .
The Qur ’ an puts forward a clear , consistent image of the Jews : they are scheming , treacherous liars and the most dangerous enemies of the Muslims .
The Qur ’ an presents Muhammad as the last and greatest in the line of Biblical prophets , preaching a message identical to theirs .
The identical character of their messages may seem odd to those who know very well that the Qur ’ an ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ from those of the Bible , but the Qur ’ an has an ingenious explanation for this : the original message of all the Biblical prophets was Islam , and they were all Muslims .
Only later did their followers corrupt their messages to create Judaism and Christianity .
Consequently , in the Qur ’ an , Abraham is not a Jew or a Christian , but a Muslim ( 3:67 ) ; his message was identical to Muhammad ’ s .
The Islamic claim is that the authentic Torah actually commands Jews @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Those who refuse to accept Muhammad as a prophet are , in the Muslim view , rejecting both Moses and the prophecies of the Torah .
It is no surprise , then , that in the Qur ’ an both David and Jesus curse the disbelieving Jews for their disobedience ( 5:78 ) .
Yet of course , Torah-observant Jews did not and do not accept Muhammad as a prophet , and this , according to Islamic tradition , enraged the prophet of Islam during his lifetime .
According to Islamic tradition @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Jews , hoping they would accept his prophetic status .
He even had the Muslims imitate the Jews by facing Jerusalem for prayers , and he adopted for the Muslims the Jews ’ prohibition of pork .
But he was infuriated when the Jews rejected him , and Allah shared his fury in Qur ’ anic revelation : “ And when there came to them a messenger from Allah , confirming what was with them , a party of the people of the Book threw away the Book of Allah behind their backs @ @ @ @ @ @ @ !
” ( 2:101 ) .
Another Jewish leader noted that “ no covenant was ever made with us about Muhammad.
” Allah again responded through his Prophet : “ Is it ever so that when they make a covenant a party of them set it aside ?
The truth is , most of them do not believe ” ( 2:100 ) .
In fact , Allah gave food laws to the Jews because of their “ wrongdoing , ” and “ for their turning many from the way of Allah ” ( @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , “ repaid them for their injustice ” ( 6:146 ) .
Some Jews are “ avid listeners to falsehood ” who “ distort words beyond their usages.
” These are “ the ones for whom Allah does not intend to purify their hearts , ” and they will be punished not just in hellfire but in this life as well : “ For them in this world is disgrace , and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment ” ( 5:41 ) .
Jews dare to deny divine revelation , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to a human being anything , ” to which Muhammad is told to respond , “ Who revealed the Scripture that Moses brought as light and guidance to the people ?
You [ Jews ] make it into pages , disclosing some of it and concealing much ” ( 6:91 ) .
Muslims should not get close to such people : “ O you who have believed , do not take the Jews and the Christians as friends .
They are friends of one another .
And whoever is a friend to them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of them .
Indeed , Allah does not guide the wrongdoing people ” ( 5:51 ) .
It would hardly be appropriate for Muslims to act peaceably toward the Jews when the Jews , according to the Qur ’ an , are prone to war—especially against Muslims .
Whenever the Jews “ kindle the fire of war , ” says the Qur ’ an , “ Allah extinguishes it ” ( 5:64 ) .
Ultimately , Allah transforms disobedient Jews into apes and pigs ( 2:63–66 , 5:59–60 , 7:166 ) .
While @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are the “ best of people ” ( 3:110 ) , the unbelievers are “ like livestock ” ( 7:179 ) .
“ Indeed , the worst of living creatures in the sight of Allah are those who have disbelieved , and they will not believe ” ( 8:55 ) .
The Jews also “ strive to do mischief on earth ” —that is , fasaad , for which the punishment is specified in Qur ’ an 5:33 : “ they will be killed or crucified , or have their hands and feet @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will be expelled out of the land.
” The rebellion against Allah that has resulted in the Jews ’ degradation—the “ terrible agony ” that those who have rejected Islam are to feel “ in this world ” as well as in the next ( 3:56 ) —is a frequent preoccupation of the Qur ’ an .
Departing from his earlier tendency to appeal to the Jews as the authorities on what Allah had revealed , Muhammad began to criticize them for concealing parts of that revelation .
The Qur ’ an several @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Muhammad , asking , “ Why don ’ t the Jews ’ rabbis stop their evil behavior ?
” ( 5:63 ) Someone who believes in the Qur ’ an as the perfect and eternal word of Allah , and the authentic Hadith as the records of the statements and actions of the man whom the Qur ’ an designates as the “ excellent example ” ( 33:21 ) for Muslims to emulate will accordingly form a negative view of Jews .
How could such a believing Muslim ever accept being friends and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the people in animosity toward the believers ” ?
How can he carry out good-faith negotiations for peace with people who fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah ( 2:79 , 3:75 , 3:181 ) ?
How can he trust those who claim that Allah ’ s power is limited ( 5:64 ) and who are “ avid listeners to falsehood ” and “ distort words beyond their usages ” ( 5:41 ) ?
A pious and knowledgeable Muslim will discover in his Qur ’ an that the Jews are busy hiding @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) .
They staged rebellion against the prophets and rejected their guidance ( 2:55 ) , and even killed them ( 2:61 ) .
They prefer their own interests to the teachings of Muhammad ( 2:87 ) .
They wish evil for people and try to mislead them ( 2:109 ) , and even feel pain when others are happy or fortunate ( 3:120 ) .
They ’ re arrogant about their status as Allah ’ s beloved people ( 5:18 ) while devouring people ’ s wealth by subterfuge ( 4:161 ) @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ) , and killing the prophets ( 2:61 ) .
They ’ re merciless and heartless ( 2:74 ) , unrestrained in committing sins ( 5:79 ) , cowardly ( 59:13–14 ) , and miserly ( 4:53 ) .
They are under Allah ’ s curse ( 4:46 , 9:30 ) .
An informed and committed believer will look at the Jews , and in particular at Zionism and the State of Israel , and not see a struggle over land or boundaries that can be solved through negotiations if a sufficient amount @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Such a believer is much more likely to see the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as an eschatological struggle against the great spiritual enemies of the Muslims , as the Jews are designated in the Qur ’ an : “ You will surely find the most intense of the people in animosity toward the believers to be the Jews… ” ( 5:82 ) There can be no negotiated settlement , and no peace , with these treacherous , untrustworthy , mendacious enemies .
And the Qur ’ an ’ s condemnations of the Jews are repeatedly @ @ @ @ @ @ @ again and again to “ the Jews , ” not simply to one party among them .
The Qur ’ an does include the Jews ( along with “ Christians and Sabeans ” ) among those who “ will have their reward with their Lord , and no fear will there be concerning them , nor will they grieve ” ( 2:62 ) , but mainstream Muslim commentators are not inclined to see this as an indication of divine pluralism .
The Qur ’ an translators Abdullah Yusuf Ali , Mohammed Marmaduke Pickthall @ @ @ @ @ @ @ glosses that make the passage mean that the Jews referred to in this passage will be saved only if they become Muslims .
Qur ’ an.com adds “ before Prophet Muhammad ” in brackets after “ Jews or Christians or Sabeans , ” making it clear that those three could be saved as such only before the advent of Islam , and that now they must convert to Islam to be saved .
What ’ s more , the Qur ’ an also says that “ they who disbelieved among the People of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the fire of hell , abiding eternally in it .
Those are the most vile of created beings.
” ( 98:6 ) Those who “ disbelieved among the People of the Book ” are the Jews and Christians who did not convert to Islam .
Yet despite all this abundant evidence that the Israeli-Arab conflict is fundamentally religious ( and there is plenty more ) , the first aspect of the conflict that Western analysts discount is Islam .

Those “kill them” verses are not isolated. The Qur’an puts forward a clear, consistent image of the Jews: they are scheming, treacherous liars and the most dangerous enemies of the Muslims.
The Qur’an presents Muhammad as the last and greatest in the line of Biblical prophets, preaching a message identical to theirs.

Consequently, in the Qur’an, Abraham is not a Jew or a Christian, but a Muslim (3:67); his message was identical to Muhammad’s. The Islamic claim is that the authentic Torah actually commands Jews to follow Muhammad and recognize his prophecy. Those who refuse to accept Muhammad as a prophet are, in the Muslim view, rejecting both Moses and the prophecies of the Torah. It is no surprise, then, that in the Qur’an both David and Jesus curse the disbelieving Jews for their disobedience (5:78).
Yet of course, Torah-observant Jews did not and do not accept Muhammad as a prophet, and this, according to Islamic tradition, enraged the prophet of Islam during his lifetime. According to Islamic tradition, Muhammad initially appealed energetically to the Jews, hoping they would accept his prophetic status.

The Jews also “strive to do mischief on earth”—that is, fasaad, for which the punishment is specified in Qur’an 5:33: “they will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land.”
The rebellion against Allah that has resulted in the Jews’ degradation—the “terrible agony” that those who have rejected Islam are to feel “in this world” as well as in the next (3:56)—is a frequent preoccupation of the Qur’an. Departing from his earlier tendency to appeal to the Jews as the authorities on what Allah had revealed, Muhammad began to criticize them for concealing parts of that revelation.

How could such a believing Muslim ever accept being friends and neighbors with “the most intense of the people in animosity toward the believers”? How can he carry out good-faith negotiations for peace with people who fabricate things and falsely ascribe them to Allah (2:79, 3:75, 3:181)? How can he trust those who claim that Allah’s power is limited (5:64) and who are “avid listeners to falsehood” and “distort words beyond their usages” (5:41)?
A pious and knowledgeable Muslim will discover in his Qur’an that the Jews are busy hiding the truth and misleading people (3:78). They staged rebellion against the prophets and rejected their guidance (2:55), and even killed them (2:61). They prefer their own interests to the teachings of Muhammad (2:87). They wish evil for people and try to mislead them (2:109), and even feel pain when others are happy or fortunate (3:120). They’re arrogant about their status as Allah’s beloved people (5:18) while devouring people’s wealth by subterfuge (4:161); slandering the true religion (4:46), and killing the prophets (2:61). They’re merciless and heartless (2:74), unrestrained in committing sins (5:79), cowardly (59:13–14), and miserly (4:53). They are under Allah’s curse (4:46, 9:30).
An informed and committed believer will look at the Jews, and in particular at Zionism and the State of Israel, and not see a struggle over land or boundaries that can be solved through negotiations if a sufficient amount of goodwill exists on both sides. Such a believer is much more likely to see the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as an eschatological struggle against the great spiritual enemies of the Muslims, as the Jews are designated in the Qur’an: “You will surely find the most intense of the people in animosity toward the believers to be the Jews…” (5:82)
There can be no negotiated settlement, and no peace, with these treacherous, untrustworthy, mendacious enemies. And the Qur’an’s condemnations of the Jews are repeatedly sweeping: the Muslim holy book refers again and again to “the Jews,” not simply to one party among them. The Qur’an does include the Jews (along with “Christians and Sabeans”) among those who “will have their reward with their Lord, and no fear will there be concerning them, nor will they grieve” (2:62), but mainstream Muslim commentators are not inclined to see this as an indication of divine pluralism. The Qur’an translators Abdullah Yusuf Ali, Mohammed Marmaduke Pickthall, and Muhammad Asad all add parenthetical glosses that make the passage mean that the Jews referred to in this passage will be saved only if they become Muslims. Qur’an.com adds “before Prophet Muhammad” in brackets after “Jews or Christians or Sabeans,” making it clear that those three could be saved as such only before the advent of Islam, and that now they must convert to Islam to be saved.
What’s more, the Qur’an also says that “they who disbelieved among the People of the Book and the polytheists will be in the fire of hell, abiding eternally in it. Those are the most vile of created beings.” (98:6) Those who “disbelieved among the People of the Book” are the Jews and Christians who did not convert to Islam.
Yet despite all this abundant evidence that the Israeli-Arab conflict is fundamentally religious (and there is plenty more), the first aspect of the conflict that Western analysts discount is Islam. Find out why that is so damaging in The Palestinian Delusion.

Despicable! The Hollywood Left may as well be financing terrorism against America.
Celebrities blasted for donating to protester bail fund as rioting, violence escalate By Washington Examiner, May 29, 2020 Celebrities are coming under fire for donating to a bail fund aimed at springing protesters even as police struggle to stop the escalating violence in Minneapolis and other U.S. cities. Steve Carell, Janelle Monae, Seth Rogen, Ben Schwartz and Halsey were among those donating to the Minnesota Freedom Fund, which is raising money to bail out protesters flooding the streets over George Floyd, a black man who died Monday while in police custody. Those contributions were called into question on social media by those asking why celebrities would want to support the mobs throwing rocks, breaking windows, looting stores, and setting fire to businesses and other buildings. “#Minneapolis police precinct set on fire…While #Hollywood stars like @Sethrogen, @SteveCarell and @rejectedjokes make donations to bail out ‘peaceful protesters,’” tweeted conservative talk-radio host Buck Sexton. The Federalist’s David Harsanyi asked Mr. Rogen to donate instead to black Minneapolis residents like Stephanie Wilford, who gave an interview sobbing over the destruction, or Korboi Balla, a former firefighter who saw rioters destroy the bar he had bought with his life savings. “Rich white dude bailing out thugs who are burning down black neighborhoods,” tweeted Mr. Harsanyi.

‘There are anarchists’: Minnesota officials say ‘outside agitators’ are far left, anarchists, not far-right groups

No amount of deception or deflection will change the unalterable fact that this is all the left .
A security expert says intelligence reports indicate most of the hard-core protesters in Minneapolis are far-left or anarchists , and that far-right groups have not yet made a significant appearance .
https : //t.co/pkJAKjkYYj The official narrative being rewritten by Democrats is that it can ’ t be antifa & extreme leftists behind the violence .
Or BLM .
Instead , it is blamed on phantom “ white nationalists.
” If they believed this , they wouldn ’ t be supporting jail @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ANTIFA and other radical left anarchist groups are organizing coordinated riots today in Oakland , CA ( see video ) ; Philadelphia ( City Hall ) ; Albany , NY ; Madison , WI ; Houston and Austin , TX ; Indianapolis ; New Orleans ; Durham , NC ; Salt Lake City ; # Antifa # BLM pic.twitter.com/RIC7c4ilCg MINNEAPOLIS — Drifting out of the shadows in small groups , dressed in black , carrying shields and wearing knee pads , they head toward the front lines of the protest .
Helmets and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and they carry bottles of milk to counteract tear gas and pepper spray .
Most of them appear to be white .
They carry no signs and don ’ t want to speak to reporters .
Trailed by designated “ medics ” with red crosses taped to their clothes , these groups head straight for the front lines of the conflict .
Night after night in this ravaged city , these small groups do battle with police and the National Guard , kicking away tear gas canisters and throwing back foam-rubber projects @ @ @ @ @ @ @ fires break out .
Windows are smashed .
Parked cars destroyed .
USA TODAY reporters have witnessed the groups on multiple nights , in multiple locations .
Sometimes they threaten those journalists who photograph them destroying property .
The mayor and governor say outside agitators are hijacking peaceful protests over the death of George Floyd and literally fanning the flames of destruction .
And experts say things will likely get worse in Minneapolis and in other cities seeing similar peaceful protests that turn violent like Los Angeles ; Louisville , Kentucky ; Des @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ; and Washington , D.C. “ The real hard-core guys , this is their job : They ’ re involved in this struggle , ” said Adam Leggat , a former British Army counterterrorism officer who now works as a security consultant specializing in crowd management for the Densus Group .
“ They need protests on the street to give them cover to move in.
” Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said protests in the city Tuesday were largely peaceful and organized by local residents , but that the “ dynamic has changed over @ @ @ @ @ @ @ want to be very , very clear : The people that are doing this are not Minneapolis residents , ” Frey said Saturday .
Minnesota Gov .
Tim Walz , without providing specifics , said he believes 80 % of the people now taking part in the overnight rioting are from outside Minnesota .
“ There are detractors .
There are white supremacists .
There are anarchists , ” Lt. Gov .
Peggy Flanagan said Saturday afternoon .
However , a civil arrest list provided by the public information officer of the St. @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 18 people arrested from Thursday through 6 a.m. Saturday were from Minnesota .
Five of them are from St. Paul , three are from Woodbury ( part of the Twin Cities metropolitan area ) , two are from Minneapolis , one is from Mankato and one is from St. Louis Park .

But it means the police will have two groups @ @ @ @ @ @ @ up a lot of police resources.
” Many protesters interviewed by USA TODAY reporters decried the violence , although some said it was a predicable result of generations of anger and suffering .
Speaking to a large crowd on Friday afternoon , Minneapolis activist Kon Johnson , 45 , said people who have subjugated for so long are finally lashing out .
He said the violence has at least gotten the world ’ s attention .

The official narrative being rewritten by Democrats is that it can’t be antifa & extreme leftists behind the violence. Or BLM. Instead, it is blamed on phantom “white nationalists.” If they believed this, they wouldn’t be supporting jail funds for the people arrested. pic.twitter.com/opfKuS8mDs

MINNEAPOLIS — Drifting out of the shadows in small groups, dressed in black, carrying shields and wearing knee pads, they head toward the front lines of the protest. Helmets and gas masks protect and obscure their faces, and they carry bottles of milk to counteract tear gas and pepper spray.
Most of them appear to be white. They carry no signs and don’t want to speak to reporters. Trailed by designated “medics” with red crosses taped to their clothes, these groups head straight for the front lines of the conflict.
Night after night in this ravaged city, these small groups do battle with police and the National Guard, kicking away tear gas canisters and throwing back foam-rubber projects fired at them. Around them, fires break out. Windows are smashed. Parked cars destroyed. USA TODAY reporters have witnessed the groups on multiple nights, in multiple locations. Sometimes they threaten those journalists who photograph them destroying property.
The mayor and governor say outside agitators are hijacking peaceful protests over the death of George Floyd and literally fanning the flames of destruction. And experts say things will likely get worse in Minneapolis and in other cities seeing similar peaceful protests that turn violent like Los Angeles; Louisville, Kentucky; Des Moines, Iowa; Detroit, Atlanta; and Washington, D.C.
“The real hard-core guys, this is their job: They’re involved in this struggle,” said Adam Leggat, a former British Army counterterrorism officer who now works as a security consultant specializing in crowd management for the Densus Group. “They need protests on the street to give them cover to move in.”
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said protests in the city Tuesday were largely peaceful and organized by local residents, but that the “dynamic has changed over the last several days.”
“I want to be very, very clear: The people that are doing this are not Minneapolis residents,” Frey said Saturday.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, without providing specifics, said he believes 80% of the people now taking part in the overnight rioting are from outside Minnesota.
“There are detractors. There are white supremacists. There are anarchists,” Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan said Saturday afternoon.
However, a civil arrest list provided by the public information officer of the St. Paul Police Department shows 12 of the 18 people arrested from Thursday through 6 a.m. Saturday were from Minnesota. Five of them are from St. Paul, three are from Woodbury (part of the Twin Cities metropolitan area), two are from Minneapolis, one is from Mankato and one is from St. Louis Park. Four are from out of state and two did not have cities of residence listed.

Others say the coronavirus was fabricated by American pharmaceutical companies so that they could then sell a vaccine they had already developed to a panicky world. Still others said the virus was fabricated by the Israelis to target only Muslims. Others said that the Israelis did indeed fabricate the virus, but in order to destroy the entire population of the world (exactly why they would do this was entirely unclear). And so on, and so idiotically forth. If you spend time at MEMRI.org, you will find these and other equally demented claims made by Muslim clerics, political figures, journalists, academics.
So it a relief to find that at least one prominent Muslim cleric is not, on the subject of the coronavirus, certifiably insane. For he was having none of it; he ridiculed all of these absurd conspiracy theories.

Hussein Halawa’s voice of reason gives one some hope that perhaps the Muslim world is not populated largely by the demented – an impression which is hard to avoid when one spends hours reading the offerings at MEMRI.org. He’s seen the infected and the dead, he knows that the coronavirus infects Muslims and non-Muslims alike, he knows that both the Chinese and the Uighur Muslims they mistreat have been infected, that the Infidels of America and Russia have been hit with the coronavirus while, at the same time, so has the cradle of Islam, Saudi Arabia.

Those clerics who have suggested that Allah sent the disease to punish Muslims who were not observant enough — “not good enough Muslims” — are unlikely to want this divine punishment to be rendered innocuous. For such Believers, those who get it deserve it.
Hussein Halawa know the coronavirus strikes the good as well as the wicked, the Believer and the Infidel, those who are dutiful Muslims and those who are unobservant; the disease plays no favorites. Christian Italy has been struck hard, and so has Muslim Iran. He does not blame the two favorite villains in the Islamic world’s conspiracy theories – America and Israel. In short, Hussein Halawa is completely clear-sighted about the coronavirus’ appearance and spread. He has kept his wits about him. He believes his “lying eyes.” And that, my fellow Infidels, given the environment in which he was raised and in which he still lives, as Secretary-General of the European Council for Fatwa and Research, is a remarkable achievement.

pamelagellerreport--2020-06-01--Minneapolis: “Palestinian” Owner of Cup Foods Called Cops on George Floyd over Counterfeit $20

Why hasn ’ t Mahmoud Abumayyaleh gotten any coverage ?
If he were Jewish , the enemedia would be full of stories about how the Jewish store owner called the cops on George Floyd and set Floyd up to be murdered .
Mahmoud Abumayyaleh should not receive such treatment , as he isn ’ t responsible for the behavior of the cops , but the silence over him versus the certain outrage had the store owner been Jewish is telling .
“ Palestinian-American Owner of Cup Foods Called Cops on George Floyd over Counterfeit $ 20 , ” by David @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , 2020 : Mahmoud Abumayyaleh , a.k.a .
Mike , is the owner of Cup Foods at 38th Street and Chicago Avenue in Minneapolis , Minnesota .
He and his three sons , Samir , Adam , and Mahmoud , bought the store in 2012 .
Last Monday , one of the Abumayyalehs ’ employees lit the match that ignited a week-long riot in 25 cities .
The employee in question ( his or her identity are kept secret in light of the numerous death threats posted on social media ) caught the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ African American customer , trying to pay with a counterfeit $ 20 bill .
So they called the cops on him .
The rest is well videotaped history : after handcuffing him , Minneapolis police officers positioned Floyd at the curb , and one of them placed his knee on his neck until he suffocated .
Floyd became one of very few Americans to receive the death penalty for passing a bad bill .
According to Ali Harb , reporting for the Middle East Eye , Arab Americans are now debating their role @ @ @ @ @ @ @ where Arab small businessmen have replaced Jewish and Asian store owners .
Indeed , according to Harb , some Arab Americans advocate not reporting black crime to the police because of the unknown consequences of such complaints .
“ Mike ” Abumayyaleh told Sahan Journal ( which claims it is “ the only independent , 501 ( c ) ( 3 ) nonprofit digital newsroom dedicated to providing authentic news reporting for and about immigrants and refugees in Minnesota ” ) : “ We stand for Black Lives Matter .
We are against @ @ @ @ @ @ @ We have a system that is broken , and it must be fixed.
” Meanwhile , a spokesman for the store , Jamar B. Nelson , said “ there have been countless death threats .
They threatened to do harm to the store , and they threatened to do bodily harm to individuals in the store.
” One post on the store ’ s Facebook page read : “ Count your days , you bastards will die slowly.
” According to Nelson , police are not only called to the store in serious @ @ @ @ @ @ @ bad money .
“ We take counterfeit extremely seriously , ” Nelson maintained .
“ We train employees that when they come in with any type of false document , protocol is to notify the authorities.
” Jaylani Hussein from the Minnesota chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations ( CAIR ) , suggested “ we need to be focused on the four police officers and having them be jailed with no bail until full charges are brought against them ” – and not on the hapless Arab store owners who called them @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , store employees were yelling at the cops , urging officer Derek Chauvin to let go of his death-choke of the dying George Floyd .

Why hasn’t Mahmoud Abumayyaleh gotten any coverage? If he were Jewish, the enemedia would be full of stories about how the Jewish store owner called the cops on George Floyd and set Floyd up to be murdered. Mahmoud Abumayyaleh should not receive such treatment, as he isn’t responsible for the behavior of the cops, but the silence over him versus the certain outrage had the store owner been Jewish is telling.
“Palestinian-American Owner of Cup Foods Called Cops on George Floyd over Counterfeit $20,” by David Israel, Jewish Press, May 31, 2020:
Mahmoud Abumayyaleh, a.k.a. Mike, is the owner of Cup Foods at 38th Street and Chicago Avenue in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He and his three sons, Samir, Adam, and Mahmoud, bought the store in 2012. Last Monday, one of the Abumayyalehs’ employees lit the match that ignited a week-long riot in 25 cities.
The employee in question (his or her identity are kept secret in light of the numerous death threats posted on social media) caught the soon-to-be-martyred George Floyd, 46, an African American customer, trying to pay with a counterfeit $20 bill. So they called the cops on him.
The rest is well videotaped history: after handcuffing him, Minneapolis police officers positioned Floyd at the curb, and one of them placed his knee on his neck until he suffocated. Floyd became one of very few Americans to receive the death penalty for passing a bad bill.
According to Ali Harb, reporting for the Middle East Eye, Arab Americans are now debating their role in the midst of African American communities where Arab small businessmen have replaced Jewish and Asian store owners. Indeed, according to Harb, some Arab Americans advocate not reporting black crime to the police because of the unknown consequences of such complaints.
“Mike” Abumayyaleh told Sahan Journal (which claims it is “the only independent, 501(c)(3) nonprofit digital newsroom dedicated to providing authentic news reporting for and about immigrants and refugees in Minnesota”): “We stand for Black Lives Matter. We are against abuse of power and racial injustice. We have a system that is broken, and it must be fixed.”
Meanwhile, a spokesman for the store, Jamar B. Nelson, said “there have been countless death threats. They threatened to do harm to the store, and they threatened to do bodily harm to individuals in the store.”
One post on the store’s Facebook page read: “Count your days, you bastards will die slowly.”
According to Nelson, police are not only called to the store in serious situations, which, apparently, includes bad money. “We take counterfeit extremely seriously,” Nelson maintained. “We train employees that when they come in with any type of false document, protocol is to notify the authorities.”
Jaylani Hussein from the Minnesota chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), suggested “we need to be focused on the four police officers and having them be jailed with no bail until full charges are brought against them” – and not on the hapless Arab store owners who called them in.
In fact, Hussein insisted, store employees were yelling at the cops, urging officer Derek Chauvin to let go of his death-choke of the dying George Floyd.
Dawud Walid, the Michigan executive director of CAIR, who is himself an African American, told the Middle East Eye that “it is unreasonable to say to the store owners just take one for the team or look the other way when someone is allegedly committing a crime, and that’s irrespective of their skin color. On the other hand, if it’s something minor or insignificant or perhaps even a misunderstanding, then the store owner should also be aware that calling the police for a small matter could actually lead to the beating or the death of a human being.”
Reporter Ali Harb stressed the political cooperation between Arabs and Blacks in America, most notably over hatred for Israel. He mentioned Angela Davis, Cornel West and Marc Lamont Hill’s support for the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, and in 2014, Davis’ and many other African-American leaders support of Palestinian terrorist Rasmea Odeh who failed to disclose to US immigration authorities her role in the murder of two Jewish students in a 1969 Jerusalem Supermarket bombing.
But Arab racists apparently fail to recognize these Black contributions to the Palestinian cause, and continue to loath the black patrons of Arab stores in the ghetto….

I received this note from a friend of mine in Chicago: “Chicago is destroyed. All of Michigan ave is looted and boarded up. Oak Street is looted and boarded up. Violence crept up into the north side.”
UPDATE: “I’m listening to the police scanner and there are TON of reports of looting. 7/11’s liquor stores, phone stores. The north side of Chicago is been looted tonight!”
River North is burning right now. Gunshots, spot grenades, firecrackers. Windows being broken everywhere, every shop destroyed. What is looting small businesses and pharmacies going to get you?

Why not send your cash to the many small business owners that were looted all night in Chicago? We had NO POLICE protection! These stores are all small businesses which were already hurting.

Looting spreads through Chicago, suburbs
As South Side stores were broken into and vandalized, suburban malls closed after reports of looting. By Nader Issa and Jermaine Nolen, Chicago Sun Times, May 31, 2020, 8:30pm CDT Share All sharing options A South Side Walmart was targeted by looters Sunday afternoon.
A South Side Walmart was targeted by looters Sunday afternoon. Jermaine Nolen/Sun-Times While peaceful protests against police brutality continued Sunday in the wake of George Floyd’s death, fires, broken windows, looted stores and spray-painted walls — scenes that earlier in the day left downtown Chicago picking up the pieces from a night of protest and rioting — moved across the city and suburbs as authorities blocked access to the Loop. Despite a scattered police presence across the city leaving some pockets open for looting without officers responding, Mayor Lori Lightfoot said at her first of two Sunday press briefings she had heard reports of incidents and police were on the way to “determine if the rumors were true, and if so, to take action.” “Unfortunately, there’s a lot of rumor and innuendo that’s floating around, but we are going to be prepared — we are prepared — and officers will respond accordingly in the event there is any effort to loot anywhere in the city,” the mayor said, referencing rumors of a burning South Side funeral home that turned out to be false. But several shopping corridors, including near 35th, 79th, 87th and 95th Streets, were targeted by looters. Near a main shopping area at 25th Street in Little Village, a large group of community members appeared to be standing guard in front of neighborhood stores, throwing bottles at passing cars to keep them away. Elsewhere in the neighborhood, groups of officers in riot gear were posted at strip mall entrances. Farther south, a Walgreens and T-Mobile at 35th Avenue and King Drive were broken into, with pieces of broke glass strewn outside and city garbage cans thrown at the windows. A Walmart at 47th Street and Cottage Grove Avenue had shattered and spray-painted windows, and shopping carts and debris were littered around the building. Officers yelled through a bullhorn for looters to “please disperse,” but police largely stayed away from the crowds in that area. An armed security guard later came through the area walking around the Walmart looking for looters, sending people running.
Several suburbs set curfews as officials brace for unrest In west suburban Lombard, village officials closed the Yorktown Center shopping mall and two nearby plazas after reports of damage in the area. “The Village of Lombard has been notified by nearby communities that they are experiencing vehicles and groups traveling along the Butterfield and Roosevelt Road Corridors causing damage,” officials said in an alert to residents urging them to avoid the area. A nearby Walmart and the Oakbrook Center, an outdoor shopping mall, were closed and blocked off by police. Orland Park was one of several suburbs to impose a curfew, and barriers were set up around Orland Square Mall after reports of “disturbances,” officials there said. At least three arrests were made in Orland Park, two for attempted burglary of a jewelry store. Other suburbs declaring a curfew Sunday night included Alsip, Berwyn, Brookfield, Country Club Hills, Oak Park, Palos Park and Tinley Park.

Earlier on Monday, the president unloaded on governors in a phone call, accusing them of being “weak” in their response to the riots and urging them to “dominate.”
“Most of you are weak,” Trump said. “You have to arrest people.”
“You have to dominate, if you don’t dominate you’re wasting your time,” he said, according to a senior staffer in a governor’s office who was listening to the call. “They’re going to run over you, you’re going to look like a bunch of jerks. You have to dominate.”
