Don't be fooled by false prophets; lying is a Socialist-Islamist weapon of war.

From Michigan to New Jersey to Minnesota to Texas, Muslim candidates and Muslim politicians are transforming American towns into sharia-influenced conclaves. Many Muslim politicians, like Abdul El-Sayed, get elected by lying to gullible Americans, promising a socialist utopia. Marxist activists boost the candidates’ lies. Ahead of this midterm election, Americans need to understand the Islamic principle of taqiyya and why the Red-Green Alliance of Communism and Islam is such an existential threat to our nation.

The riots in France are a terrifying window into this Red-Green Alliance, as the violent insurrectionists looting and torching stores, churches, synagogues, and historic monuments have been repeatedly and constantly flaunting Palestinian or Communist flags. Fox News and the New York Post have also reported that many dozens of shady groups, including pro-Hamas and Marxist entities, fund and fuel the riots. Among the backers is Neville Roy Singham, the billionaire who is a proxy for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and married to the Code Pink founder. Singham has also funded riots in America, and we too have had our share of pro-Hamas and Antifa violence. Communists and Islamists might have different beliefs and goals, but they share hatred of the West, love of tyranny, and a belief in violence as a vital tool. If Americans don’t want France’s nightmare to come here, each one of us needs to be awake to the threat of socialism and Islamism in America. That includes realizing that the Islamic religion endorses taqiyya, or lying to infidels.

Lying for 'Holy' Purposes

Historical expert Robert Spencer has a more detailed analysis of taqiyya both in terms of Islamic sacred texts and history. While the concept allegedly first grew out of the initial major split in Islam following the murder of Mohamed’s adopted son Ali, when the Shi’ite Muslims would lie about their allegiance to avoid being killed by the Sunni Muslims, Spencer points out that the idea of lying for "holy" purposes was accepted by all Muslims, Shi’ite and Sunni alike, based on Quran 3:28: "Believers should not take disbelievers as guardians instead of the believers—and whoever does so will have nothing to hope for from Allah—unless it is a precaution against their tyranny." Notably, the justification is not one Muslim group lying to another Muslim group, but rather believers (i.e., Muslims) lying to non-believers (i.e., non-Muslims) to avoid some political or economic consequence.

Furthermore, as Spencer emphasized, a famed quote attributed to the "prophet" Mohamed is "war is deceit." Quran 33:21 holds up Mohamed as the perfect example for all Muslims, which is why devout Muslims have to believe that mass murder (particularly of Jews), lying, pedophilia, rape, sex slavery, incest, and religious persecution are admirable. The main point, however, is that Mohamed himself endorsed the idea that lying is an essential part of jihad, or "holy war." It’s a weapon. Every successful army uses spies and some sort of undercover work, but for Muslims, war isn’t restricted to one military conflict or one country. It is an unending global occupation that includes everything from terrorism to mass migration to education infiltration to political propaganda. In that sense, the Muslims also are like the Communists, who likewise see war with capitalist democracies and republics as involving every sector of society, though Islam adds the extra shade of religious zeal.

Socialist Utopia

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is an obvious illustration of my point. He came to office by promising all kinds of socialist utopian programs, including heavily subsidized housing, city-run grocery stores, "free" childcare, property seized from landlords, and more. Under his tenure, rents have hit new record highs, housing sales have dropped, and businessmen have fled, taking jobs with them, all while the city government continues to overlook or justify violent crime (especially from illegal alien criminals). Mamdani also announced in April that NYC was "worse than broke" and needed to cut programs. The socialist utopia was a lie, as socialist utopias always are. Meanwhile, Mamdani is married to and friendly with people who celebrated the October 7 atrocities in Israel. He has fundraised for the terrorist-infested United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, or UNRWA, has urged violent activism targeting Israelis, and joined a prayer at a Queens Iran-linked mosque that called for the slaughter of infidels. In other words, Mamdani wears the mask of socialism to advance the twin threats of Marxist tyranny and Islamic sharia.

El-Sayed, the Democrat Michigan Senate candidate, is not so openly socialist as Mamdani claims to be, but perhaps his biggest selling point to Michiganders is that he wants universal healthcare, which is thoroughly Commie. The fact that the United States is incredibly broke and doesn’t have the money for "Medicare for All"—not to mention socialist government healthcare systems always end up deprioritizing patients considered expendable, like Canada's Medical Assistance in Dying, or MAiD, program—does not bother El-Sayed. Like many a Democrat and Muslim before him, he is happy to lie to get elected. And while he preaches perfect equality, his familial and funding history indicates he is thoroughly jihadi and strongly racist.

El-Sayed published academic research asserting that Arab women who had children only with other Arabs had fewer preterm births than those who engaged in "interethnic mating." No wonder he has no issue with his campaign surrogate Hasan Piker calling to lynch black people—moreover, saying America deserved 9/11. Then again, anti-black racism has a long history in the Arab world, and Muslims traditionally impose the jizya tax on non-Muslims living under their rule (presuming they don’t kill all the infidels, of course). As for El-Sayed’s family, his own sister repeatedly identified them all as long-time Muslim Brotherhood members. His sister-in-law was on the terror watchlist under the Obama era; his father-in-law is still part of the Hamas front group the Council on American-Islamic Relations, or CAIR; and his mother worked for a terrorist proxy that helped Osama Bin Laden. Muslim Brotherhood terrorists excitedly celebrated El-Sayed’s candidacy, yet his campaign claimed that identifying him with the terror group was "racist." El-Sayed also happens to be an unlicensed doctor whose degree was partly funded by the Soros family, and who has received extensive funding from plutocrats, even though he also made hating on billionaires a key part of his alleged platform. As El-Sayed’s opponent Mike Rogers emphasized, all El-Sayed does is lie. But that’s exactly what one would expect a jihadi to do.

Adam Hamawy hasn’t gotten a lot of national press lately, but the New Jersey congressional candidate deserves attention because he literally testified on behalf of the 1993 World Trade Center bomber, the "Blind Sheik" Omar Abdel-Rahman. Hamawy testified he had not heard his mentor Abdel-Rahman threaten to assassinate the Egyptian president, which was contrary to the testimony of an FBI source. Hamawy did admit that the conference to which they were traveling at that time involved discussions of “jihad” and “conquering the land of the infidels.” Conference speakers included Dr. Ahmad Nofal, a Hamas recruiter and Holocaust denier, and Osama Bin Laden associate Hassan al-Turabi. Hamawy served as the Blind Sheik’s translator at a press conference about the 1993 bombing. He also worked with an al-Qaeda front group, the “Benevolence International Foundation,” including the Bosnian center that local authorities eventually raided because it had loads of evidence that the foundation was really al-Qaeda.

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) is all over the news right now over evidence of her immigration fraud, both by marrying her brother and by allegedly lying about her and her father’s naturalization citizenship. And she and her family are tied to multiple taxpayer funding fraud scandals. But did you know that her real name is almost certainly Ilhan Nur Said Elmi and that her father is accused of participating in the Isaaq genocide in Somaliland? Omar lied about her citizenship status, about her brother-husband, and about her family’s history, and she supports Islamic terrorists in Gaza just as her father was a terrorist in Somaliland. Oh, yes, and she pushed socialist policies like “Medicare for All” while her own wealth steadily grew.

No investigation into the Islamization of America would be complete without mentioning Dearborn, which—similar to Hamtramck, Michigan and Paterson, New Jersey—has such a heavy Muslim population that it is practically a sharia outpost straight from the Middle East. Police have Arabic on their uniform patches, and the Islamic call to prayer echoes over the streets multiple times a day. Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud has made it clear many times that he supports terrorism and religious intolerance. After the town took Revolutionary War hero Joseph Warren’s name off a street to name it for a Hezbollah jihadi, a local resident protested, to which Hammoud responded, "You’re an Islamophobe. And although you live here, I want you to know as mayor you are not welcome here. The day you move out of the city will be the day I launch a parade celebrating the fact that you moved out of the city."

Hammoud reportedly gave a speech in a mosque a few years ago urging Michigan Muslims to mobilize so they could take every last local office. Hammoud spread the blood libel against Israel of "genocide" in Gaza and reacted to Hamas’s October 7 atrocities by vilifying Israel. This year, he faced a lawsuit over the fact that he spent taxpayer money lavishly on Ramadan displays but refused to dole out equal funding for Christmas and Passover decorations. But guess what one of Hammoud’s primary selling points has been to voters? He said he was uniting all aspects of city government under one goal of public health, including finding new ways to redistribute taxpayer money. In other words, while he might not identify as socialist, he bribed voters with socialist welfare/health policies to hide his profoundly pro-death religious beliefs. As always, the Islamist made his poison more palatable with a little Communism.

There have been 70,000 jihad attacks globally since 9/11, and still not enough Americans understand the profound threat that Islam poses to America both at home and abroad. When jihadis like the Iranian mullahs chant "death to America," they really mean that. Author and former Muslim Dan Burmawi has repeatedly warned that Islam isn’t just a religion—it’s an ever-expanding political state with ever-shifting borders.

The Republic and 'We the People'

El-Sayed said in a 2009 interview that his primary duty was to sharia, because Allah was more important than any other duty or loyalty. This is not the same as a Jew or Christian pledging ultimate personal allegiance to God, because the true God does not command the massacre of infidels or defiance of a country’s laws for a pro-death, pro-slavery, pro-tyranny set of rules. Judaism and Christianity make its adherents better citizens; indeed, the greatest Founding Fathers acknowledged God as their king. But for a Muslim, there is the choice between being an evil man and a "good" Muslim, or being a good man and a "bad" Muslim. And of course, there is always the sticking point that a Muslim, even one who doesn’t practice very devoutly like Ilhan Omar, fervently believes in taqiyya.

Just as the Communists have been infiltrating our institutions, poisoning our schools, rioting in our streets, and making deals with foreign enemies for a century or more, so now the Muslims are just as determined to transform America, and with many of the same tactics. If the current American education system, welfare state, and riot culture horrify you, realize that the Red-Green Alliance will make it all so much worse, existentially worse. "We the People" have a Republic only if we "can keep it"—and electing Muslims to political office is a shortcut to losing the Republic.
