Civil terrorism expert Jason Curtis Andersonoffers a cheat sheet on dark-money-funded foundations and radical organizations that operate with little regulation, functioning in many ways as a parallel form of government aligned with the Democratic Party to wage endless war against President Trump and his MAGA base, while also pursuing more sinister goals of collapsing the nation and dismantling capitalism.
Anderson’s cheat sheet to better understand “the orgs who are setting America on fire” that should be investigated first includes:
Notice that Soros’ Open Society is at the top of everyone’s list.
Anderson further explains:
Everyone
acknowledges the political power held by people like George Soros, but
no one understands how it works. It’s quite simple:
There are two channels of power: America’s dark money foundation network, and the activist nonprofits that they fund. Think of them as the troops.
The dark money NGO world launders tax-exempt 501c3 donations into the activist groups,
which drum up interest in the current popular cause, which strengthens
the progressive voting bloc, and also organizes mass-scale protests and
occasional riots.
In many ways, this is an unelected parallel form of government, working to subvert our actual government, and these are the people who want to burn America down.
It makes sense why George Soros is the self-appointed king of this
sector, because there’s much more power there than there is in
government, with all of their pesky rules.
He can push dangerous policies like drug legalization, decriminalizing crime, fund an electoral machine that will elect the most far-left politicians who will pass those bills, and then elect DAs like Alvin Bragg who will refuse to prosecute violent crime. You can accomplish all of this through these channels.
Both the dark money foundation world and the activist nonprofits are completely unregulated. There are no clear deliverables, no safeguards to ensure they are working in the public good, and when they burn a city down, they are never held responsible.
Ten nonprofits can co-sponsor an event that becomes a riot and burns cop cars, and there is no mechanism to hold these tax-exempt nonprofits accountable, as they proved in the anti-ICE riots in LA.
About 90% of the revolution against the West is driven by the activist nonprofit sector, which is funded by a network of billion-dollar progressive foundations.
The choice is clear: begin to enforce this sector or let it take over our government.
[Doug here: I
think the commie NGOs already have taken over much of our governance:
crazy local prosecutors that refuse to prosecute, crazy judges that are
very left-wing biased, sanctuary cities/mayors that encourage illegal
immigration (at the expense of locals), and corrupted officials at all
levels. ]
Where did all those supposedly legitimate ~14 MILLION EXTRA Democrat
“votes” from 2020 go?? Huh? I don’t remember any enthusiasm for Biden
by voters —hell he could hardly fill a small room during his campaign.
And remember, he was mostly in his basement during the campaign season.
And Kamala was a huge dud.
THERE WERE 14 MILLION FAKE VOTES.
The big question: How and Why did the Democrat popular vote revert to ‘trend’ in 2024?
Think of the hell that
we had to endure for 4 frigging years of "autopen" Joe as Obama and his
assistants continued their assault on America. We're still suffering the consequences....
ActBlue
is a self-proclaimed grassroots fundraising platform for the Democratic
Party. The Democrats want the public to believe that the everyday
American fully supports them, but the truth has come to light after an
ongoing investigation found that the organization has been upheld by
dark money from both “foreign and domestic fraudulent actors.”
The
House Judiciary Committee, the Committee on House Administration, and
the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform released a joint
interim staff report titled, “Fraud on ActBlue: How the Democrats’ Top Fundraising Platform Opens the Door for Illegal Election Contributions.”
When the investigation began, seven senior staff members resigned from
their positions. Every lawyer affiliated with the organization stepped
away, further raising suspicions. ActBlue’s chief fraud-prevention
specialist stated he was solely focused on DEI work even as he listed
his top goal as “not allowing more than 10 [percent] additional missed
fraud.”
Internal documents revealed that ActBlue lowered
its standards for fraudulent donations twice ahead of the 2024 US
elections. Instead of actively looking for fraud, employees were
encouraged to be “more lenient” and actively “look for reasons to accept
contributions.”
“Internal documents also indicate that there have
been instances in which bad actors have fraudulently taken control of
user accounts, giving them the ability to make straw donations appearing
to be from regular donors,” the report noted. There were over 22
ongoing fraud campaigns to Democratic candidates, nine of which received
donations from foreign actors.
“Internal
documents also indicate that there have been instances in which bad
actors have fraudulently taken control of user accounts, giving them the
ability to make straw donations appearing to be from regular donors,”
the report stated. In a separate case, a Wisconsin Republican strategist
claims ActBlue stole his identity to make 385 fraudulent donations on
his behalf. “ ActBlue has even seen brazen instances of fraud in which
multiple people have made donations using the same credit card
information, and has internally acknowledged multiple incidents in which
fraudulent donations evaded ActBlue’s automatic fraud review
processes,” the report found.
One tactic used was collecting and
saving card verification values (CVVs) for the first donation and using
that information for recurring contributions. These contributions were
found to amount to nearly half of all funding to ActBlue.
ActBlue
violated the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 (FECA). Enacted by
President Nixon, FECA established regulations for campaign fundraising,
spending, disclosures, and penalties for those in violation. The act has
been amended numerous times, with the last amendment occurring in 2002
known as the McCain-Feingold Act. FECA bans foreign national from
donating to US elections to prevent foreign interference. We heard the
rumors of Russian collusion, but ActBlue openly accepted donations from
foreign nations like Iraq, Saudi Arabia, India, Brazil, and Colombia.
ActBlue
used straw donor schemes, also illegal under FECA, that permitted
contributions under false names. There were even instances of identical
small fonations occurring from the same day under different names, which
points to bundling or automated donations that the individual may not
have approved of.
FECA also establishes contribution caps and
limits to prevent undue influence. The investigation found that donors
bypassed this law by using prepaid cards or varying billing details.
“Smurfing” practices, breaking large donations into a series of smaller
donations, also occurred.
Transparency went out the window as the
agency processed 1,900 flagged fraudulent transactions between 2020 and
2024. Employees were encouraged to accept every and any donation even if
that meant turning a blind eye to fraud.
ActBlue is the
Democratic Party’s main fundraising platform. These allegations
seriously undermine the ethics of the Democratic Party in general.
Charges have not been filed at the time of this writing but the agency
could face a DOJ case, but since things are (D)ifferent, they may get a
slap on the wrist with FEC fines.
Nearly half of all immigrants in the Minneapolis-St. Paul Twin Cities were found to have committed some form of immigration fraud during a recent sweep by immigration authorities, officials revealed Tuesday.
“Officers
encountered blatant marriage fraud, visa overstay, people claiming to
work as businesses that can’t be found, forged documents, abuse of the
H1B visa system, abuse of the F1 visa, and many other discrepancies,” US
Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) director Joseph B. Edlow
told reporters Tuesday.
Officials didn’t point to a specific group, but the Twin Cities has seen a massive uptick in Somali refugees and immigrants in recent years — with more than 82,000 from the East African country living in Minnesota.
USCIS
visited 1,000 homes across Minneapolis and St. Paul in the last two
weeks and found “nearly 50%” of inhabitants were engaged in some form of
immigration fraud.
“Our officers found indications of fraud,
non-compliance or public safety and national security concerns,” Edlow
said. “What they found should shock all of America.”
The operation
– dubbed Twin Shield, and carried out with the help of ICE – began on
Sept. 13 and concluded this week, with Edlow calling it a “success” that
could soon be repeated in cities across the country.
“This is the first of many,” Edlow said. “Any city should be prepared to be the site for an operation of this magnitude.”
It
remains unclear how many people were detained in the operation —
officials would only disclose that “multiple” had been taken into
custody, explaining that it was too early to give an accurate number.
The
Twin Cities were chosen because the “data” showed it as a hotspot for
“manipulation and misuse of the immigration system,” officials said,
with cases of marriage fraud found to be a particular problem.
In
one incident, investigators encountered a Kenyan immigrant who paid just
$100 for a fake death certificate in his wife’s name so he could marry
his way into the US. The trouble is, his wife was alive and well, and
found with their five kids in Minneapolis.
“Incidentally, he has another wife living in Sweden with whom has an additional three children,” Edlow said.
Another
migrant found living in the Twin Cities was the son of a “known or
suspected terrorist on the no-fly list,” and had made numerous attempts
to commit marriage fraud before being caught in the operation, according
to officials. He is now in custody for deportation.
A third
person conned an elderly American woman into marriage – and while the
bogus couple have since divorced, officials said she “lives in fear” of
retaliation from the conman.
“I want the American people to know
that we are declaring war on immigration fraud,” Edlow said. “We have a
responsibility to keep this system legitimate.”
“What has been uncovered by these diligent officers over the past two weeks, that’s only the tip of the iceberg.”
Minnesota has sizable immigrant populations from countries like India, Vietnam, and Mexico, but its Somali residents have been a flashpoint for years.
The first refugees from Horn of Africa started arriving in the 1990s as Somalia descended into a violent civil war and famine.
Bill Maher slams media
for ignoring killings of Christians in Nigeria. Its just one more data
point in the appalling criminality of Muslims; worldwide and for 1400
years.
Bill Maher slams media for ignoring killings of Christians in Nigeria. On Friday’s “Real Time” show Bill Maher criticized the lack of media coverage over the ongoing killings of Christians in Nigeria, arguing that the issue has been neglected because “Jews aren’t involved.” [Doug here:
there’s also an epidemic of Muslim murder in Somalia, Sudan, Congo,
Syria, Pakistan, Iraq, Philippines, S. Thailand, Niger, Gaza. See this
list of Islamic terror in 2024 alone here. It’s happened year after year, decade after decade, century after century. Islam is the biggest murder machine in human history.]
Maher made the remarks during a panel discussion with Representative Nancy Mace, who raised concerns that the crisis in Nigeria has received little attention in the US.
“Well, because the Jews aren’t involved. That’s why,” Maher replied. “It’s the Christians and the Muslims — who cares?

“Well,
because the Jews aren’t involved. That’s why,” Maher replied. “It’s the
Christians and the Muslims — who cares?” He went on to accuse Islamist
group Boko Haram of “literally attempting to wipe out the Christian
population of an entire country.”
“Where are the kids protesting
this?” Maher said, referencing the ongoing anti-Israel protests across
the US for the past two years.
“They are systematically killing
the Christians in Nigeria. They’ve killed over 100,000 since 2009.
They’ve burned 18,000 churches. This is so much more. These are the
Islamists, Boko Haram. This is so much more of a genocide attempt than
what is going on in Gaza,” he continued.
Maher added that if Americans have not heard about the violence in Nigeria, then their “media sources suck.”
“You are in a bubble,” he said.
According
to the UK division of Open Doors, a global Christian charity, the
crisis in Nigeria poses a significant threat to peace and stability in
the region. The group told Fox News
that, “Around 150,000 people have been killed in jihadist violence over
the last 10 years. Over 16 million Christians have been driven from
their homes and their land across the region.”
According to
the organization’s data, more Christians are killed for their religion
in Nigeria than in the rest of the world combined. In August, the White
House said it is working with the State Department to develop strategies
to address the crisis.
I’ve exposed the Left’s big lies to keep the Climate Change
grift going in a recent post. I’ve pasted the posted below the
announcement of the end of the so-called “endangerment finding,” which
was an ongoing lie that trace amounts of CO2 in the atmosphere is
"harmful and/or threatening to human health." This is a big lie. I
talk about the top four big lies below this announcement by Anthony Watts at “Watts Up With That?”
The decision by Environmental Protection Agency to remove the Carbon Dioxide Endangerment Finding
represents a pivotal shift in America’s approach to climate policy—one
rooted in evidence, not ideology. For years, this “finding” has served
as the legal justification for an array of costly, far-reaching
regulations targeting everything from our nation’s power plants to the
cars we drive and the energy bills we pay. Its removal is a direct
response to mounting evidence that the basis for this rule was always
more about speculative modeling and political maneuvering than sound
science. Watch the announcement here:
The Carbon Dioxide
Endangerment Finding, first enacted in 2009, rested on claims that
rising levels of CO2 posed a dire threat to public health and welfare.
These claims, trumpeted by alarmist voices in the media and bureaucracy,
relied heavily on computer models that have since proven to be
chronically inaccurate, consistently forecasting more warming than
actually observed. In the years since, we’ve witnessed a remarkable gap
between dire projections and reality: global temperatures have not
followed the “runaway” path predicted, and extreme weather
events—despite breathless coverage—remain well within the range of
historical variability.
Yet while the U.S. was tying itself in
regulatory knots, China and other major emitters continued to expand
their coal-fired power generation, wiping out any hypothetical benefit
of America’s self-imposed restrictions. According to multiple
independent sources, China has increased its annual CO2 emissions by
over 70% since 2005 and now burns more coal than the rest of the world
combined. The idea that the U.S. could “lead by example” and coax the
rest of the world into similar sacrifices has been thoroughly debunked
by the facts on the ground.
The real-world effects of the
Endangerment Finding were felt not in the climate, but in American
households and businesses. Energy prices rose, manufacturing jobs fled
overseas, and everyday citizens bore the burden of expensive, symbolic
gestures that did nothing to alter the climate trajectory. The American
people deserve policies that produce measurable results, not more of the
same costly theater.
By removing the Endangerment Finding, the
EPA is signaling a long-overdue return to rational, evidence-based
policy. This action acknowledges that CO2 is not a pollutant in any
meaningful scientific sense but a fundamental component of life on
Earth—one that, at current atmospheric concentrations, has proven
benefits for plant growth and agriculture. The change is not about
neglecting environmental stewardship; rather, it’s about discarding
unproductive policies and focusing on real solutions grounded in
evidence, innovation, and economic reality.
The Four Big Lies About “Climate Change:”
Big Lie #1: Trace Amounts of CO2 in the Atmosphere are “Dangerous” to Human Life
If
you’ve read this blog, you know that I have complained about the EPA’s
illegal power grab must be reversed because it’s based on a lie. The lie
is that carbon dioxide is "harmful or threatening to human health" at
current and projected levels. This is also called in government-speak
the “endangerment clause.” It’s the basis for all government programs to
spend massive amounts of money to convert everything to electrical,
stifle fossil fuels, control citizens, EV subsidies, solar/wind
subsidies, carbon taxes, etc. But to call 400 parts per
million (ppm) levels of CO2 in the atmosphere "harmful to human or
public health" is untrue and should be reversed. It's just not true.
It’s STILL a trace gas in the atmosphere at 0.04%, up from 0.032% from
100 years ago. Even at 1000 or 1500 ppm CO2 will not significantly
change the climate.
Unlike
other gases such as sulfur dioxide, CO2 is naturally occurring at about
0.030% (300 ppm) (usually much higher in most of Earth’s history —see
the Figure 2 below.) All trees, plants, algae, crops and phytoplankton
require it for their photosynthesis and all of these are the bases for
nearly all of the earth’s food chains. Recent CO2 levels have only risen
to a less-than-astounding 0.042% in 60 years (or 420 ppm). And plants
are probably growing faster now and the Earth is turning greener. The
ocean will eventually absorb the slight increases.
But CO2
at 400 ppm is not a pollutant like sulfur dioxide and NO/NO2 (nitrous
oxide, nitrous dioxide), which are appropriately regulated by our EPA
through the Clean Air Act. Other than volcanic activity,
emitted sulfur dioxide is mostly due to human and industrial activity —
mostly from burning coal or untreated fuels. NOX emissions are mostly
from automobiles and industrial activity. They are
appropriately regulated and reduced because both have shown to cause
acid rain, deforestation and harm to human respiration. They are both
irritants to human respiration.
But Carbon dioxide is not
harmful to human respiration at anywhere close to the 400 parts per
million level (trace levels). Our exhaled breath contains 4% or 40,000
ppm CO2. Are you apoplectic if you sit next to others exhaling 40,000
ppm of CO2? I think not. And CO2 is literally plant food required for
all photosynthesis; for agriculture, forests, all plant life and ALL
LIFE on Earth.
Below
is Fig.2, showing the history of the world and CO2. Notice that lows in
atmospheric CO2 occur during periods of glaciation which is why our
levels are 300 to 400ppm now. Other times, CO2 has been 1000 to 1600 ppm
and higher.
There’s a reason for the effect of ice ages. It’s
because any gas is more soluble in water at colder temperatures. This
includes CO2, N2 and O2. All water absorbs CO2 (also N2 and O2) but
colder water absorbs more. The dissolved gas comes from the atmosphere;
therefore CO2 levels in the atmosphere falls as the environment cools.
(see fig 2):
Similarly,
cold ocean seawater is cloudy with plankton and algae because cold
seawater has more dissolved oxygen for sea organisms. This explains the
fact that cold Pacific Ocean water remains immensely productive in ALL
types of sea life. It’s cold seawater that has all the krill and
plankton to support huge food chains in the Arctic and Antarctic and
especially in all the colder sea currents around the world like off of
Western N. American and Western South America.
(On the other hand,
warm water, like the Caribbean, is clear and blue because warm water is
actually a "desert” for sea life relative to cold seawater—since there
is much less dissolved oxygen.)
Big Lie #2: Acidifying the Ocean! Oh My!
CO2
dissolves in seawater and is absorbed in an incredibly vast
carbonate/bicarbonate buffer system in the ocean. The earth’s oceans are
alkaline at a pH of 8. (Neutral ph is 7. acidic is below 7 and alkaline
is above 7).
Normally dissolving CO2 dissolved in fresh water
makes it acidic; like sparkling water. But since the ocean has a MASSIVE
carbonate/bicarbonate buffering system, it can and will absorb all of
the excess CO2 in the atmosphere over time with no pH change. That
dissolved CO2 just shifts the carbonate/bicarbonate equilibrium and the
water pH remains STEADY at 8 or nearly so. That’s the definition of a
buffer system. There is no acidifying of ocean waters due to higher CO2
emissions by humans. That’s one of the common lies of our time.
The ocean will eventually absorb ALL of man’s excess emitted CO2—given enough time —with no consequence! It has happened before many times.
The
only reason that CO2 is building-up at all in the atmosphere at all is
that it’s rate of being absorbed by land, plants and oceans is less than
current emissions.
Big Lie #3: We’re All Burn Up and Oceans Will Boil!
Concern
and even panic is created in the media due to faulty science from
so-called “climate researchers”—who ARE ALL FUNDED BY GOVERNMENTS OR
NGO’s. It’s so-called climate models that have caused the
greatest panic, but they are nearly all wrong! If you don’t predict
panic, you won’t get funding!
It’s true that the rise of temperatures appears to be SOMEWHAT
correlated to the rise of atmospheric CO2 measurements at Mauna Loa,
Hawaii; but not well correlated at all! CO2 levels have risen 30% (from a
trace level in 1975 to a still trace level in 2022), but temperatures
have risen a relatively small amount from the most accurate measurements
taken well above the surface by balloon and satellites. I’ll follow up
with definitive evidence and research by Edward Happer, a renowned
physicist and climate scientist, from his article called How to Think About Climate Change.
Yes,
carbon dioxide is rising, but it’s still at trace levels—from 320 to
410 or so during 60 years. Could it be that rise in world CO2 emissions
since 1980 are due mostly to China and India?? Hydrocarbons are bringing
BILLIONS of people out of poverty and misery. Unfortunately, China has
dramatically polluted itself, it’s water, it’s land and the world. And
China is at the start of financial and demographic crisis. China could
lose 400 million people in the next 80 years. There’s reason to believe
that China will implode —it’s happening now (in slow motion so far).
Also remember, we may
only have about 100 more years of “affordable” petroleum sources as the
easy-to-extract stuff is becoming depleted, so our future may very well
need to be low-carbon nuclear or thorium reactors for energy
generation. See here: thorium.
Big
Lie #4: Depopulation, Severe Limits on Agriculture, Nuclear, Fossil
Fuels, Food and Industrial Production are necessary to ward off
disaster, Oh My!
We
don’t have a Climate Scare as much as we have Malthuseans, half-wit
losers and bad science in academia and all the governments,
government-funded “institutions,” think tanks, etc. Our world is
dominated by people desperate for “clicks” and “views” on the internet. Remember all climate scientists are paid for by government or “academia.”
We
hear of “centrally planned” 15 minute cities where you’ll be trapped
according to evil meglomaniac Klaus Schwab. And he’ll have his private
jets to rule the world of course. He’ll be eating imported Wagyu beef
while everyone else is eating bug meal.
Great Britain has gone
from “the sun never sets on the British Empire” to an uninhabitable land
where PROTECTED immigrant-invaders hunt down young English women and
subject them to gang-rape
A
recent prime minister, Liz Truss, said in a recent interview that “an
orthodoxy has taken over British institutions in the same way as it has
taken over European institutions. That orthodoxy believes in mass
migration, multiculturalism, toleration of Islamism.
We have seen
appalling coverups of grooming gangs in Britain with girls as young as
12 being systematically raped and no national inquiry. It’s been covered
up. There is a group of people who have essentially taken over our
institutions with a particular world view and they don’t want to be
challenged, which is why we’re seeing free speech being suppressed
because they don’t want people to know just how badly wrong it is
going.”
Organized gang-rape of women in UK cannot even be acknowledged, but Epstein’s sex-trafficking is all over the news.
The White Ethnicity (and Christianity) of the UK is Systematically Being Destroyed
Twelve
year old Courtney Wright was sent home from school in Warwickshire for
wearing a Union Jack dress to school on Culture Celebration Day. She was
supposed to be celebrating the cultures of immigrant-invaders, not
English culture. For her offense, she was sent home. In Britain, Culture
Celebration Day excludes British culture, a hateful racist thing.
With
the largest cities governed by Muslim mayors and the British
government’s job posting for a Shariah law administrator, Chaudhry’s
prediction seems on the money. The current ethnic British protests against the overrunning of their country are being put down by the white British police.
The situation is the same in the US, Scandinavia, and Western Europe.
Organized gang-rape of women in UK cannot even be acknowledged, but Epstein’s sex-trafficking is all over the news.
Shorn
of its greatness, the remnant of a nation is now called the UK. It’s
happened to some extent in America, but Mr. Trump is rapidly reversing
that crap.
White People In Europe Reside in the Cannibal’s Pot a la “Camp of the Saints”
This
is what French novelist Jean Raspail predicted in 1973 in his book
“Camp of the Saints” and Enoch Powell predicted in 1968. The dumbshit
Western intellectuals snickered and pointed their fingers. Having been
failed by its intellectual class, which endorsed Sodom & Gomorrah
and a Tower of Babel, Western civilization disintegrated. What is left
of it?
Our belief system has been destroyed:
Law and media have been weaponized against white ethnics. Free speech has been suppressed.
A merit-based society has been replaced by an institutionalized DEI society that discriminates against white ethnicities.
Schools teach white kids that they are racists and must stand aside for people of color.
Feminists have destroyed the white family, thus dispensing with the basis of white society.
The
anti-white UK government now has an “Online Safety Act” which is used
to block awareness of rape of ethnic British under age girls by
immigrant-invaders.
The UK now has an elite police unit whose job is not to patrol the streets or to protect English women from being captured. The purpose of the elite police unit is to monitor social media for anti-migrant sentiment.
Recently
an English judge turned loose two immigrant-invaders’ proven guilty of
the gang rape of a 14 year old English girl because they were merely
“expressing their cultural values.”
The
extremely anti-white British ethnic tyranny that rules in the UK is
determined to replace the ethnic population of the country with
dark-skinned immigrant-invaders. The government presents
Russia as the enemy, while immigrant-invaders aided and abetted by the
UK government overrun the UK and exist off the captured people’s
resources.
The immigrant-invaders lack for nothing and are
increasingly immune to English law. Multiculturalism is a Tower of Babel
with many values. All must be accepted. Rape, murder, these are just
“cultural values.”
The English people, like those of Europe and
America, have long been indoctrinated that multiculturalism is the
greatest good and, consequently they have stupidly failed to resist the
invasion that has now destroyed their countries.
When the
facts of raped 10 year old daughters overcame the brainwashing, the
English have realized too late that they are a lost people. Forty
or more years too late, the apathetic English people have finally
realized that England is no longer theirs. Their country belongs to
Indians, Pakistanis, Arabs, Africans. It belongs to anyone but the
English.
What is happening in UK is not only the
demise of free speech but also the criminalization of opposition to
becoming subjects of privileged immigrant-invaders. By aligning with the
anti-white government, the stupid British police have lost the support of the ethnic British population.
Mosab Hassan Yousef, the estranged son of Hamas founder, explains why Islam
is NOT a religion of peace, why violence is embedded in the Quranic
commands, and why he believes that radical Islam and Hamas will never
accept peace with Israel or the West
(Transcribed by TurboScribe.ai. )
Interviewer: What is your view on Islam?
Hassan: As
someone who grew up in a Muslim family, I was conditioned to be a
Muslim. Later on, I went to a Sharia school. I studied Islam.
I
memorized portions of the Quran. I read the Quran on a regular basis. I
studied classic Arabic to understand the language of the Quran.
I spent most of my childhood and up to my mid-twenties in that environment. Islam
is not a religion of peace. Bottom line. This is not according to one
sect. This is according to the Quran itself. All the Islamic sects and
denominations follow a major book, and that is the Quran.
The Quran in itself is not peaceful. The God of the Quran, Allah, is not peaceful. He is a very violent God.
He is not tolerant. He hates the Jewish people. He hates the non-Muslims.
He
(Allah) gives the authority to the Muslims to punish the non-Muslims if
they don't obey Allah, to function as the sword of Allah on earth. This
by itself is blasphemous, is wrong, is against the way of life, is
against the way of evolution, is against religion, is against morality,
is against diversity. Those who claim that Islam is a religion of peace,
they are liars.
They are all paid actors. They are
all compromised by their Sheikh oil money, and they don't want to piss
off Islamic political regimes and Islamic money and Muslim investors,
and most importantly, they want to avoid the Muslim rage. So they just keep dragging humanity into the trap that Islam is a religion of peace, while it's not.
So
as someone who knows the Quran very well, so the people cannot be
mistaken and say, okay, this is your Islam, or this is your sect, or
this is your denomination, I tell them, rest. Take a seat and listen. The Quran itself has a problem.
Allah
himself has a problem. And if we want to deal with Islamic violence,
then we need to deal with the root cause of this problem, and it resides
in the Quran itself.
Interviewer: So what about the millions of Muslims across the world who do not engage in jihad and who are peaceful?
Hassan: Then
they are not Muslims. Then they're just nominal Muslims. They have
been given the identity of a Muslim because they were born in that
environment, and they don't have any other identity. They are just weak
individuals, and they don't practice Islam.
According
to Allah, they are going to hell. But for some reason, they just keep
clinging and hanging on this identity, Muslims. It's pathetic.
It's
disgusting. And they don't earn my respect to identify with something
they don't understand, or to identify with a Nazi ideology and pretend
to be peaceful. So Islam is not ethnicity.
It's
not even a religion. It's a totalitarian system. And this system does
not see anyone outside of it, does not recognize anyone outside of it.
Islam
is a mental illness, in other words. And the Muslims, whether they know
what Islam is or they don't know what Islam is, as long as they
identify with this sick ideology, I consider them psychopaths, I
consider them sick people, and they must seek help.
Interviewer: Yeah,
I think you called them nominal Muslims. I mean, you made a term for
the millions of Muslims who are peaceful, and I just want to point out,
they're not actors, right? There are millions of Muslims in this world
who are peaceful. You can call them nominal if you want, but I just
think it's worth noting, right? Isn't that an important fact, I think?
Do you agree?
Hassan: No, I disagree. I
disagree, because in Islam, and you know that I rejected Islam totally
many years ago, the Islamic law says, and this is according to Muhammad,
in a Sahih Hadith, if someone changes his religion, Islam in this case,
give him three days, if he does not return to Islam, kill him.
So this is according to Muhammad now, the founder of Islam, and according to the most trusted Islamic sources. So now, there
is a death sentence against me by this totalitarian system. Now, when
someone identifies with Islam, and comes and says, I'm a Muslim, now,
how am I to actually feel about him? If there is a death sentence
against me, and against, by the way, many ex-Muslims, that we are
supposed to be beheaded for just rejecting our belief system, and it's
delusion.
So now, for you, you can sit, you and
the rest of the world, you can sit and reject my concern, because you
are not in the fire. There is no death penalty hanging over your head.
There is no prize over your head.
You are sitting
in comfort. We are fighting for our lives, me and thousands of those
who rejected the Islamic ideology, and there are perpetrators out there
who want us dead. Now, when some Mustafa, because he was born that way,
come and create a false sense that Islam is a religion of peace, they
are already complicit in this crime.
They are already taking the side of the enemy.
They are already giving cover to those who want to harm me and harm the
rest of civilians, and the rest of non-Muslims across the world. This
is why I stand firmly and say, what makes you a Muslim? Are you a practicing Muslim? Then you are a jihadist, or at least you justify the jihad.
If this is what you do, this means that you are my enemy. It's as simple as that. Now you tell me they are peaceful, not peaceful. How do I know? Look,
Interviewer: I
know these issues are contentious, and I really hope that none of my
questions are coming off silly. You know, when I say, oh, I'm curious,
and you're thinking, Jake, like, you're curious. I feel like I don't
want my curiosity to come off as childish.
I mean, these are serious issues we're talking about. So here's my thought. I want to hear what you think about this.
So
you're talking about Islam, and you know the Quran very well, so I'm
not going to dispute that. So I'm Jewish, right? I'm culturally Jewish.
I'm not religious, but I consider aspects of my culture.
There are
elements of Judaism that I appreciate, and culturally I consider myself
Jewish, right? And a quick question for you. Like, would you agree that
Judaism is not a religion of violence? Like, you would say Judaism is a
kind religion overall. Would you agree?
Hassan: Look, first of all, I'm not an expert on Judaism.
Interviewer:
That's number one. Yeah, because here's what I want to say, just my one
thing. So in the Torah, there are certain, in the Jewish Bible, there
are certain laws that are obsolete, they're considered cruel, and
they're no longer in practice, okay? So one such law is stoning for
adultery.
It's in the Torah that adultery can be punishable
by death. It's in the Torah that you can have the death penalty for
blasphemy. And so as a Jew, I stand against all of those things.
And
the reason I can be Jewish and be against certain rules in the Torah is
because I don't consider Judaism to be a literal, like, I don't take
the Bible literally. I don't take it literally. And so I discard the
elements that I think are unethical.
And so I don't mean to anger
you, but I think my final question on Islam is that, don't you think
that in the same way that I can be Jewish and discard the immoral
aspects of the Torah, you can be Islam, or you can be Muslim rather, a
moderate, or as you say, nominal Muslim, and discard the elements of the
Quran, which you feel are unethical. Is that a possibility?
Hassan: Okay.
Let me ask you this. So you say that it's violent because it's stoning
adulteress, or those who commit adultery. Does it specify that they are
to stone the non-Jewish?
Interviewer: I don't know.
Hassan:
It doesn't, and that's the difference in Islam. Islam points out a
Jewish and a Christian population. The Christians and the Jews are
mentioned by name in the Quran, and the Muslims are given the authority to function as the sword of Allah.
So
the violent verses that you say, they're coming from the Stone Age, and
Judaism has reformed thousands of years ago. And look at Israel today.
It's a secular society.
Even though there are people who
believe in the Stone Age ideologies, the majority of the Jewish people
disagree with barbarism and savagery. Now, the Holy Scripture, the
Bible, is not the highest authority of the State of Israel or of the
Jewish people. It's the Jewish intelligence that understands the essence
and understands the distance, the space and time.
And it's
proving that the Jewish people don't practice savagery. Like, bring me
one evidence that a Jewish crowd or mob that stoned a woman for
committing adultery in public, and that was praised by the Jewish
people. It's impossible.
You cannot find any evidence of that. But
you will find it in Pakistan, you will find it in Saudi Arabia, you
will find it in many other Islamic societies. Then, the Muslims, when
you talk about adultery, this is a punishment system that is targeting
one's society.
It's written for the Jewish people. If a Jewish
person, let's say, sinned in a certain way, there is a punishment. It's
for the community, the Jewish community.
It's not a law
that applies for the non-Jews. But the Muslims think that they have the
right to punish the non-Muslims, to go invade and force people to
worship Allah. And if they disobey, they have the right to kill them.
This
is what they did for 1400 years already. And they are demonstrating
that through jihad, which is a unique concept, only to Islam. You know,
there is no such thing as jihad in Judaism.
There is self-defense. This is understandable. The use of force is understandable.
But
to go and try to conquer the globe and create a global Jewish state,
this does not exist in Judaism. So, I am not concerned of a scripture
that was written from the beginning of time. I am concerned of a
scripture that is still active and people act on it by killing and
kidnapping and justifying all types of barbarism.
And that's only existing in Islam. And this is why we have all this Islamic global chaos. So, both cannot be compared.
I see a dramatic explosion of plant growth in my own backyard. Does anyone notice the same??
More atmospheric CO2; faster and more abundant plant growth. It’s VERY significant
I’ve recently posted some articles on global warming science: One is from Dr. Happer: Why More Atmospheric CO2 Will Barely Raise Earth's Temperatures
where Dr. Happer explains that the effect of greenhouse gases in the
Earth’s atmosphere, ie., water vapor and CO2 are already “maxxed-out.”
Even if CO2 levels in the atmosphere triple or quadruple from here, say
to 1500 ppm (still a trace gas), the effect would be quite small and
barely noticeable as the climate effects of the current CO2 and Water
vapor levels are basically already at maximum effect/levels. Remember,
water vapor, ie., humidity, is the most powerful greenhouse gas — even
compared to CO2.
In some 60 years, earth’s atmospheric
CO2 has gone from about 380 ppm to about 427 ppm—all still very much
trace-gas levels. But the increase in percentage terms is about 15%.
Well, that’s enough for significantly higher plant growth rates! And I
see it in my own gardens! Now, I must say that SE Texas has had plenty
of rain this summer, but that’s fairly normal. But plant growth is
exploding noticeably!
Apparently it’s true across the world:
How Green is Your Garden?

I've Never Seen Such Plant Growth in my Community!
