Two attorneys, Colinford Mattis, 32, and Urooj Rahman, 31, reportedly were caught attempting to distribute homemade molotov cocktail devices to protesters who were clashing with police near the 88th Precinct in Fort [sic].
“Rahman attempted to distribute Molotov cocktails to the witness and others so that those individuals could likewise use the incendiary devices in furtherance of more destruction and violence,” a witness was quoted as saying to authorities in a detention memo from federal prosecutors for the Eastern District of New York.
Rahman was captured in a photo obtained by the New York Daily News wearing a Palestinian keffiyeh on her face and holding a makeshift Molotov cocktail. The keffiyeh, a chequered black and white scarf, has become a symbol of Palestinian nationalism.
Rahman is a graduate from Fordham University law school. In 2014, she did a summer fellowship internship program at the Israel based Mada Al-Carmel’s Arab Center for Applied Social Research in a partnership program with Palestine Works.

pamelagellerreport--2020-06-14--Muslims Enraged Over Video Game, Game Developer Revises It to Please Them

The latest version of a video game known as PlayerUnknown ’ s Battlegrounds ( PUBG ) has become the focus of controversy after Muslims have grown enraged and complained about how it supposedly encourages “ idol worship.
” And true to form for practically the entire world these days , when faced with this rage , the game developers caved and revised the game .
Everyone has decided that the best thing to do in the face of intimidation from Muslims is give them everything they want , and so that ’ s what happened in this case .
OpIndia @ @ @ @ @ @ @ after PUBG released a new feature titled ‘ Mysterious Jungle ’ , which triggered a backlash in Islamic societies for allegedly pushing forms ‘ idol worshipping.
’ ” It seems that “ the online game PUBG Mobile had released a latest ‘ Mysterious Jungle ’ mode and it is reported to be exclusive to the ‘ Sanhok ’ map .
The reason for the outrage was due to a feature present in the new update where players can pray in front of a totem in order to restore their health.
” Muslims reacted @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as “ only a game ” or alternatively , issue warnings to Muslim parents that the game contained un-Islamic elements and should not be purchased .
Instead , “ many Muslim players took it as an insult to their religion as idol worship is prohibited in Islam .
The took to Twitter to slam the creators of PUBG for promoting idol worshipping and asked fellow Muslims to uninstall PUBG .
Another user asked Muslims to uninstall PUBG , if he was a true Muslim.
” This rage was based on the idea that @ @ @ @ @ @ @ children : “ a number of preachers from the Middle East had also warned against the recently released PUBG update , in which players appear worshipping idols .
The preachers had demanded authorities to act swiftly to save children from these concepts.
” Dr. Bassam Al Shatti , Professor of faith at the College of Sharia , Kuwait University , said that PUBG had “ violated Islamic beliefs regarding prostration and bowing to idols , and this is the greatest sin in Islam because prostrating and bowing is worship and glorification solely and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ explained that children who played the game could become “ addicted ” to polytheism : “ The special draw of gaming that makes it the preferred pastime of so many millions of kids and adults is not just entertainment , it is dangerous because it teaches them polytheism , so they prefer it and become addicted to it.
” Another Muslim academic , Dr. Rashid Al Alimi , Professor at the College of Basic Education , “ added that these games are dangerous for Muslims since they can create generations who do not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Islam , which declares absolute monotheism – the unity and uniqueness of Almighty Allah as the creator and sustainer of the universe.
” And Dr. Aref Bin Mazyad Al Suhaimi , Professor of Faith in the College of Da ’ wah and Fundamentals of Religion at the Islamic University in Saudi Arabia , added : “ Islam promotes tolerance , balance , equality , consensus , reformism , and all things that take the middle path to materialise the best interest of people .
So Sharia permits games that have a preponderant interest @ @ @ @ @ @ @ swimming , horse riding , etc.
” But not , needless to say , idolatry .
Uninstalling the game and calling upon Muslims to avoid it was one thing , but in this case the Muslim rage mob succeeded in getting the game revised for everyone .
Now the supposed temptation to idol worship has been removed for all the players , not just Muslms .
Players who might actually have liked that feature are out of luck ; they can ’ t muster a rage mob nearly as large or as threatening @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
And so once again the principle is reinforced : when Muslims ( or Leftists , as we are seeing everywhere lately ) are enraged about something , give them what they want .
The whole world seems to have decided that the proper response to intimidation with the implication of violence behind it is to give in .
This will only encourage more intimidation , but no one seems to mind .
The same thing happened after the jihad attack at the Muhammad art exhibit and cartoon contest that Pamela Geller and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ intelligentsia , the renowned TV talking heads , rounded upon Pamela Geller and rebuked her for exercising the freedom of speech , when everyone knows that the proper response to Muslim threats is to kowtow .
Everyone knows that .
Everyone does it .
The problem , there keep on being more demands .
And now those who do the demanding know this tactic works .
Will all this end anywhere short of the full adoption of Sharia in the West ?
Only if someone in power decides that there will be no @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Muslim and Leftist demands .
We ’ re still waiting for that person .

pamelagellerreport--2020-06-14--Ilhan Omar: It’s All About Her Benjamins, Baby

Not content with having misused campaign funds in Minnesota for out-of-state travel , not content with having – apparently — married her own brother in order to commit immigration and student-loan fraud , not content with having been – apparently — married to one man at the same time as she declared on her tax returns , two years running , that she was married to another , not content with having committed adultery with her campaign consultant , to whom she paid unusually large sums , both when they were lovers and now that they are married to one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a problem with “ benjamins.
” Those are the 100-dollar bills with Benjamin Franklin ’ s face on them ; “ benjamins ” is Omar ’ s synecdoche for money , lots of it .
She famously used the phrase in attacking AIPAC , the American-Israeli Public Affairs Committee , accusing it of bribing politicians with money for their campaigns , in exchange for their support of Israel .
She apparently did not realize two things : first , AIPAC does not make contributions to political campaigns , and second , a great @ @ @ @ @ @ @ support Israel out of conviction .
No one is given money to be “ pro-Israel.
” I ’ m fairly sure that can not be said for Saudi Arabia .
Now Rep. Ilhan Omar is on track to pay the political firm founded by her new husband more than $ 1 million by the end of 2020 , campaign finance filings show .
The New York Post has the story here : In the first three months of this year , the Minnesota Democrat ’ s campaign paid the E Street Group $ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and other services , according to a federal campaign finance report filed Wednesday and obtained by the Star Tribune .
At that rate , the company would get $ 1.16 million from Omar ’ s campaign in 2020 — more than double the $ 523,000 it received for the whole of last year .
The firm was founded by Omar ’ s longtime consultant Tim Mynett , allegedly a former loverwhom she married last month .
The congresswoman announced their nuptials on Instagram .
Their relationship attracted scrutiny in August , when The @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s then-wife , Beth , alleged in court papers that he walked out on their marriage after admitting to having an affair with Omar and declaring his love for her .
Both Omar , 38 , and Mynett , 39 — who were each married to other people at the time — denied the affair .
The claim prompted a conservative watchdog group to file a complaint against Omar with the Federal Election Commission .
The FEC has taken no public action in regard to the complaint .
Ilhan Omar ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in on her and lover in pajamas It ’ s not illegal to put friends and family on the campaign payroll as long as the cash is for legitimate campaign expenses and paid at fair market value .
What kinds of payments did Tim Mynett ’ s firm receive in the past or now , from other clients ?
Was his small political consultancy group , which received almost all of its income in 2018 , 2019 , and 2020 from Ilhan Omar ’ s campaign , being “ paid at fair market @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the amount the firm received in 2019 is expected to double this year ?
Will Tim Mynett ’ s firm be doing twice as much work ?
Or has E Street Consultants suddenly become able to charge twice as much because of tthe superb quality of their 2019 work ?
Surely the Committee on Congressional Ethics needs to look into this , but given Ilhan Omar ’ s combative nature and the sheer chutzpah with which she lies – she firmly denied having an affair with Mynett , just a few months before @ @ @ @ @ @ @ members may be scared to take her on .
The freshman firebrand — who first hired Mynett ’ s firm during her 2018 congressional run — defended their business relationship in a series of tweets last month .
“ My relationship with Tim began long after this work started .
We consulted with a top FEC campaign attorney to ensure there were no possible legal issues with our relationship .
We were told this is not uncommon and that no , there weren ’ t , ” Omar tweeted .
“ As a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ practice of joy , compassion and love in our politics .
And we are giving ourselves the permission to be happy and hope others will as well.
” On track to paying her husband ’ s firm $ 1.16 million this year , Ilhan Omar is in effect paying herself .
She stands to benefit from the enormous salary Tim Mynett is now receiving , out of all proportion to what he was making over many years , before Ilhan Omar became his client , then his lover , and then his wife @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to avoid investigation by the Committee on Congressional Ethics , her fellow Muslim congresswoman and soulmate Rashida Tlaib is still under investigation .
The OCE has noted that “ Rep .
Tlaib ’ s campaign committee , Rashida Tlaib for Congress , reported campaign disbursements that may not be legitimate and verifiable campaign expenditures attributable to bona fide campaign or political purposes .
If Rep. Tlaib converted campaign funds from Rashida Tlaib for Congress to personal use , or if Rep. Tlaib ’ s campaign committee expended funds that were not attributable to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ then Rep. Tlaib may have violated House rules , standards of conduct , and federal law.
” We already know that as a member of the Minnesota State Legislature , Ilhan Omar was found to have misused campaign funds on personal accounting expenses and out-of-state travel , and was required to pay back her campaign $ 3,500 , and a fine of $ 500..
In June 2019 , Minnesota ’ s CFB ( Campaign Finance Board ) found that Omar filed “ tax returns for two years , stating she was married to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she was married to another.
” So even before she came to Washington , Omar had managed both to misuse campaign funds while running for the state legislature , and to cheat on her taxes by claiming to be married to one man while still married to another .
How much Omar saved by that lie , and whether she was allowed to “ amend ” her tax returns to reflect reality without a penalty , is not known .
And now , in Washington , where Congresswoman Ilhan Omar presumes to preach @ @ @ @ @ @ @ con artist , having paid penalties when caught back in Minneapolis , but so far managed to keep her Congressional seat , will this year likely be directing more than one million dollars in her campaign funds to her husband ’ s firm .
All perfectly legal , of course , unless the Committee on Congressional Ethics decides that the “ fair market value ” of Mr. Mynett ’ s consulting services to Mrs. Mynett is not a million dollars , but a great deal less .
We ’ ll just have to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a lot to answer for .
So far she ’ s managed to slither away .
But investigative reporters are on her trail .
Let ’ s hope this turns out to be her annus horribilis .

Not content with having misused campaign funds in Minnesota for out-of-state travel, not content with having – apparently — married her own brother in order to commit immigration and student-loan fraud, not content with having been – apparently — married to one man at the same time as she declared on her tax returns, two years running, that she was married to another, not content with having committed adultery with her campaign consultant, to whom she paid unusually large sums, both when they were lovers and now that they are married to one another, llhan Omar continues to have a problem with “benjamins.” Those are the 100-dollar bills with Benjamin Franklin’s face on them; “benjamins” is Omar’s synecdoche for money, lots of it.

No one is given money to be “pro-Israel.” I’m fairly sure that cannot be said for Saudi Arabia.

pamelagellerreport--2020-06-15--Fauci changes tune, now says second COVID-19 wave may never happen — and mask-wearing is symbolic

During the interview , the infections diseases expert also admitted that wearing a mask is not 100 % effective , but says that it is a gesture that shows “ respect ” for other people .
Fauci changes tune , now says second COVID-19 wave may never happen — and mask-wearing is symbolic Dr. Anthony Fauci now says that a second wave of COVID-19 may not even happen and that wearing a mask is largely symbolic at this point .
What about the second wave ?
In a Wednesday interview with CNN ’ s “ Newsroom , ” Fauci — @ @ @ @ @ @ @ coronavirus task force — said that a second COVID-19 wave is not necessarily inevitable .
“ We often talk about the the possibility of a second wave , or of an outbreak when you ’ re reopening , ” Fauci explained .
“ We don ’ t have to accept that as an inevitability.
” “ Particularly , ” he continued , “ when people start thinking about the fall .
I want people to really appreciate that , it could happen , but it is not inevitable.
” Fauci admitted that he @ @ @ @ @ @ @ optimistic as days go by , and insists that the U.S. ’ s expanded capability for testing is bolstering the COVID-19 response .
He pointed out that a second wave is entirely preventable if the U.S. is able to have the “ workforce , the system , and the will to do the kinds of things that are the clear and effective identification , isolation , and contact tracing.
” In April , however , Fauci insisted that second wave of coronavirus was inevitable .
During an interview with MSNBC , he said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the coronavirus will return next season .
… When it does , how we handle it , will determine our fate.
” And so what about the masks ?
Fauci also said that Americans should wear face masks in public to protect themselves — but also to get into good practices .
“ I want to protect myself and protect others [ by mask-wearing ] , and also because I want to make it be a symbol for people to see that that ’ s the kind of thing you should be doing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interview , the infections diseases expert also admitted that wearing a mask is not 100 % effective , but says that it is a gesture that shows “ respect ” for other people .

Faux-ci.

“Particularly,” he continued, “when people start thinking about the fall. I want people to really appreciate that, it could happen, but it is not inevitable.”
Fauci admitted that he is beginning to feel more and more optimistic as days go by, and insists that the U.S.’s expanded capability for testing is bolstering the COVID-19 response.

“I want to protect myself and protect others [by mask-wearing], and also because I want to make it be a symbol for people to see that that’s the kind of thing you should be doing,” he added.
During the interview, the infections diseases expert also admitted that wearing a mask is not 100% effective, but says that it is a gesture that shows “respect” for other people.

Yes, Hizzoner admits the city faces a fiscal crisis, with the pandemic and lockdown costing $9 billion in revenue over two years. Yet his “solution” so far is little more than to demand a federal bailout and more borrowing authority from Albany. He won’t even acknowledge the long-term crisis.
Even before the riots and looting socked businesses here, the city faced a dire future: Its entire model for prosperity is in doubt, as Nicole Gelinas has warned in The Post. With virus fears remaining, and recent experience showing the possibilities, many commuters may keep working from home, outside the city. Employers may move out, too — especially with looting a recent memory yet the political class focused on restricting the NYPD.
That would only worsen a pre-virus glut of office space and further hurt businesses, like restaurants and retail, that depend on them.
Statewide, it may be worse: Last month, Empire Center fiscal expert E.J. McMahon said New York faced “an economic catastrophe of historic proportions.”
Despite all this — and with just weeks left before the July 1 budget must be set — de Blasio has said little (and done less) to address the looming fiscal nightmare, as revenue tied to the economy sinks.
Though he now foresees a $9 billion gap, his April plan nonetheless would increase city-funded spending. And while private-sector workers suffer pay cuts and job losses, de Blasio plans to boost the city headcount through 2024, even after swelling it 10 percent (30,000 jobs) since taking office.
Plus, he wants Albany to let him borrow $7.4 billion to cover expenses — precisely the kind of thing that led Gotham to near-bankruptcy in the ’70s.

The group just released several better ideas to stem the bleeding:
• Trim the municipal workforce by 9,000 positions, leaving it still larger than before the financial collapse of 2008 and saving nearly $1 billion a year.
• Ask employees to chip in more for their health care and to ease work rules.

De Blasio’s goal may be to squeeze by until he steps down next year, but if he leaves the city facing a fiscal doomsday, he can be sure history won’t take kindly to it.

Kaiser-Friedrich-Strasse in the Marxloh district of Duisburg is one of the streets that are said to be firmly in the hands of Arab clans. The police patrol the pedestrian zone frequently, it is usually peaceful, and the officers sometimes wave to the many children playing. The situation was similar on the evening of May 17: at 6:07 p.m., a uniformed patrol car crew consisting of two officers and a third-year commissioner candidate was noticed by the German-Lebanese S., an 18-year-old frequent offender who is known to police and is a member of a large Lebanese family. This is a momentous encounter that will lead to a public reopening of the conflicts in the north of Duisburg and will make headlines nationwide in the following days.
Against S., born in Duisburg in July 2001, 75 investigations have already been carried out since 2014, mainly for property and violent crime, as stated in an investigative report by the police headquarters in Duisburg about the recent violence in Marxloh. The 13 pages are available to our editors. The report is declared with VS (classified information) – only for official use.
There is a pre-trial detention order against S. for dangerous bodily harm. That is why he escaped that May evening when he saw the officials, accompanied by two people who, according to the police, are said to belong to the support group of the Lebanese-born extended family. He ran into a residential building – dangerous terrain for the police. The blocks, according to the mission report, have a freely accessible system of cellars and backyards, and are inhabited by large Lebanese families. Nevertheless, the police officers decided to persecute S., but they request reinforcement by radio.

In the block of houses, S. wanted to flee into an apartment, but when he rang the doorbell, the door was not opened immediately. The police took advantage of this and caught up with him. They overwhelmed him with an “irritant sprayer” and “with simple physical violence.”
Meanwhile, the candidate for the commissioner blocked the front door of the house so that no supporters of S. could come to his aid. Outside, 25 people were already protesting loudly against the police operation. The reinforcements arrived and cleared the space, but were attacked, and some officers suffered minor injuries. S. threatened the police with death: he said he would kill them all at some point. Everyone knew how big his family was and who the police had just messed with.
Since the arrest of S. “the conflict seems to be boiling again in and around Marxloh,” according to investigators. The police tactic of zero tolerance, which has been used in the field for several years, actually works. Since 2017, with 24 “tumult situations,” the number has been reduced to eleven in 2018 and four in the past year, as stated in the present investigation file. But just in the days after the arrest in the stairwell there were two further tumult situations in the north of Duisburg, on May 19 and May 28.
