Trump outfoxes FOX

Breitbart’s Donald Trump ‘Definitely Not’ Doing Fox News Debate had 40,000 comments.

Dan Friedman. Shrewd: Trump evades the trap set for him by Fox News. Now wily and ballsy are two words we need to add to the list of Donald Trump’s talents. And hysterical and sleazy are two words we need to apply to pretend Republicans and the MSM, which now includes Fox. But you already knew that, I’m sure.

Google and Fox TV Invite Anti-Trump, Hitler-Citing, Muslim Advocate to Join Next GOP TV-Debate

by NEIL MUNRO, BREITBART

Fox News and Google have invited three YouTube personalities to ask questions at the Jan. 28 GOP debate — including a Muslim advocate who describes Donald Trump as a bigot and who visually portrayed him as being in agreement with national socialist Adolf Hitler.

“We have a presidential candidate whose loudest message reeks of hatred and Islamophobia… turning on the news now is scary, and oftentimes, humiliating,” the Muslim woman, Nabela Noor, says in a December YouTube video.

She admits to becoming a Muslim political activist amid the growing criticism of Islam’s doctrines. “The current social environment for Muslims today is not safe or just… as a Muslim American, I felt like I needed to use my voice,” she claimed.

Noor also urged her YouTube viewers to rally against critics of Islam. “I’m so thankful for those who speak up and out against anti-Islamic speech and ideologies. Our community needs more allies like you, but we have a long way to go,” she said.

The two companies announced Tuesday afternoon that the anti-Trump Muslim advocate would be allowed to play a role in the debate.

Google is teaming up with the Fox News Channel for the final Republican debate in Iowa on Thursday, January 28, 2016, and integrating three new components into the debate to help people get informed before they head to the polls, including a way to hear directly from candidates on Google; real-time Google Trends data; and questions from three of YouTube’s most prominent voices—Nabela Noor, Mark Watson, and Dulce Candy — who will join the moderators in the debate to ask the candidates a question on an issue that matters to them and their communities.

The Republican National Committee also approved the choice of Noor, an LA.-based press aide for YouTube, Jackie Cavanagh, at MPRM Communications, told Breitbart. “I believe” she was chosen by YouTube, with help from the RNC and Fox, she said.

“YouTube creators were selected in collaboration with Fox based on things such as audience size and their ability to bring a new, fresh perspective to the most important issues of our time. Fox informed the party/candidates of the format,” said a p.r. person.

Allison Moore, a press secretary for the RNC, told Breitbart that “We had nothing to do with that.”

Irena Briganti, a spokeswoman for Fox, also did not respond.

In December, Trump announced he would restrict the immigration of Muslims until the jihad problem can be addressed. “It is obvious to anybody the hatred is beyond comprehension. Where this hatred comes from and why we will have to determine. Until we are able to determine and understand this problem and the dangerous threat it poses, our country cannot be the victims of horrendous attacks by people that believe only in Jihad, and have no sense of reason or respect for human life,” said Trump.

The statement came 14 years after Islamic jihadis killed 3,000 Americans and destroyed the Twin Towers in New York, and after many other jihadis launched or tried to launch a series of attacks across the United States.

In her videos, Dulce Candy, the invited Latino questioner, said she was brought from central Mexico to the United States while a young girl. She later joined the U.S. military and served in Iraq. The press announcement described Candy:

With over 2 million subscribers on her YouTube channel, Dulce is a top YouTube beauty, fashion and lifestyle influencer. The only thing more impressive than her fanbase is her story: she immigrated to the United States from Mexico at age 6 and served in the armed forces in Iraq. Today, she’s a proud U.S. citizen, mother, and entrepreneur who serves as a role model for latinas, women, and more.

Noor is described in the company anouncement as well:

Born in New York, Nabela is a 24 year old Muslim American whose parents immigrated from Bangladesh. As an up-and-coming beauty creator with over 140,000 subscribers, Nabela hasn’t shied away from social issues. In a recent video, she spoke about being called a “terrorist” in elementary school after 9/11 and emphasized the importance of tolerance above all.

The perspective of the Muslim woman, Noor, has been shaped by her Bangladeshi immigrant parents, who were paired off by their parents in an arranged marriage as teenagers, aged 17 and 14.

These Bangladeshi Muslim parents migrated to the United States — while hiding am anchor-baby pregnancy — and later kept Noor in the house for many years to prevent her from integrating with American society. “Growing up, we weren’t allowed out much, our parents wanted to preserve our culture at all costs,” she said. They even refused to let her date a man, even after she had gone to college, Noor said in a biographical video. The parents also arranged a marriage for Noor’s older sister. Her mother still wears a head-covering to mark her as a loyal Muslim.

Aspects of Islamic culture remain part of Noor’s personality, under the outward appearance of an American fashionista.

For example, Noor argues that Muslims are individually and collectively insulted when many Americans’ offer sincere and well-argued criticism of Islam’s violent doctrines — for example, jihad, bans against free speech, the death penalty for quitting Islam, sexual subordination of women, opposition to democracy and the separation of mosque and state, etc., etc. That bigoted claim of injury from free speech echoes the demand from orthodox Islam that critics of Islam be silenced – by force if needed – and that the status or honor of each Muslim is damaged if they fail to fight against any criticism of Islam by non-Muslims.

So Noor claimed:

To be hateful and Islamophobic has become so common that it is proudly displayed all around us, online, on the news, and in politics. it is dehumanizing and it hurts. It is hard not to see a bumper sticker of a bigoted presidential candidate and not feel personally attacked when his entire campaign rests on the backs of Muslim-Americans. Where there should be messages of hope and tolerance, there are messages being spread of fear and hate, thus breeding violence.

In contrast, Western Christians and non-Christians try to treat criticism of ideas, such as Christianity’s claim that unborn humans deserve the right to life, or the merits of any particular presidential candidate, as a problem to be solved by facts, logic, free-speech, and compromise. That’s fundamentally different from Noor’s Islamic-style, only-one-winner fight over honor, pride, and supremacy.

That only-one-winner, zero-sum attitude often pushes Muslims to escalate debates into shouting matches and threats. Noor, for example, showed an image linking Trump and Hitler, which suggests that Trump’s criticism of Islam’s jihad ideology is so morally reprehensible that it is equivalent to actually murdering six million Jews, plus at least 10 million Slavic Russians, plus millions of other victims of Hitler’s socialism-for-Aryans Nazi ideology.

In fact, much to the embarrassment of Muslim advocates in the United States, that aggressive aspect of Islam was admired by Jew-hating, left-wing Hitler, who naturally also hated Christianity’s peacefulness, reason and emphasis on individuals’ conscience.

Noor also described criticism of Islam as “Islamophobia,” as if only the existence of a nationwide mental-disease could explain why Americans criticize jihad or child-marriages or the murder of captured Christians or the murders of homosexuals or the murder of a seventh-century poet.

That term, “Islamophobia,” was developed by Islamic advocates to help their allies stigmatize critics of Islam. Generally, Western advocates do not describe their critics as mentally diseased, but as illogical, selfish, or misinformed.

In her video, Noor also tried to argue that Trump’s implied criticism of the violence associated with Islam — likely, including the 9/11 atrocity, the San Bernardino murders, and many other recent jihad attacks — is somehow causing more attacks by Americans against Muslims in America. She did not supply evidence, but did show a newspaper clipping that was actually about a Muslim in Detroit who stabbed two non-Muslims after asking them if they were Muslims.

“Nick Loussia, Deputy Chief of Police for the Southfield Police Department, said [the stabber] ‘is Muslim, and asked the victims what religion they were’ before allegedly attacking them,” said a report at MLive.com.

But Noor portrayed the Muslim-against-not-Muslim jihad attack as actually caused by Americans’ fear of Muslim attacks

“The fear-mongering tactics are a direct cause of hate-violence against Muslims and that makes being a Muslim in America today very, very scary,” she claimed. Noor did not mention any of the many, many, many attacks by Muslims against non-Muslims in America.

She did, however, try to argue that the many Islam-inspired attacks are not Islamic. ‘There are people out there that manipulate our texts to serve their own sick twisted agenda,” she said, without trying to explain how ISIS violates Islamic texts, or trying to disavow the many commandments for jihad in the Koran.

  1. @ babushka:

    To tell you the truth, I have enough problems as a Canadian at this point in time, without being overly concerned about Trump.
    Having said that, the best, and most useful, aspect of Trump, is that he’s scaring the pants off the people we normally regard as “establishment”. These are people who would do little or nothing to change the obvious downward trajectory of the US.
    If you have a nice, simple, inoffensive way of accomplishing this change please feel free to enlighten us as to how to do it. Even we fed-up Canadians are very interested in the restoration of the US to what it was intended to be and once was long ago.

  2. @ keelie:

    Trump is not in the least “establishment”

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mx2V-D-Xdq8

    Good one. Trump’s wayward embrace of corporate welfare ethanol subsidies is so ultra-Establishment that it produced immediate moans of orgasmic ecstasy from corrupt Establishment ghouls like Lott/Hatch/Dole. You might not realize that he belongs to their disreputable club of elitist parasites, but they do.

  3. As Sun Tzu so famously said, never trust a schizoid egotist with a really bad hair weave:

    Mix in his signature instability: He would never stop treating Kelly nicely, until — turning on a dime — he did . . . just like Carly Fiorina was unattractive until she was “beautiful” . . . and Jeb Bush was a great guy until he was a loser . . . and Ted Cruz was a friend until he was a “nasty” guy that no one would have for a friend . . . and ISIS was Putin’s problem until we needed to obliterate them . . . and he was going to roll over all the “stupid” people on Capitol Hill who’ve screwed everything up until he was going to make deals with his old friends Pelosi, Reid, and Schumer . . . and he was going to round up and kick out 12 million illegal aliens but then bring most of them right back into the country.

    How can Trump fans think, based on what he’s saying at the moment, that they know what a President Trump would do a year from now? The truth is: No one knows whether what he just said is what he’ll be saying five minutes from now.

  4. @ babushka:
    Oh – and you give yourself away: Trump is not in the least “establishment,” which is why he is viscerally hated (now where have I heard these words before?) by his “Republican colleagues”.

  5. @ babushka:
    Thank goodness he has something positive going for him!

    And I don’t mind if he is a charlatan, just like the others around him, just as long as he is capable of doing what has to be done. The great thing about his being a charlatan is that it takes one to know one, and there are apparently lots of them waiting to be undone in Washington and in other parts of the world.
    No diplo-talk necessary.

  6. @ keelie:

    Goodness!!! For a moment I thought you were listing the talents of Bill Clinton!!!

    You should have been alerted by the omission of the term “sexually predatory”. Trump is an Establishment Republican charlatan, not a rapist.

  7. Rich, politically incorrect, center-right populist billionaire with big media presence running a country?

    It’s already happened.

    Ever hear of Silvio Berlusconi? Sure the elite media hated him. But Italy made him Prime Minister three times. Italy fared better under him than under any of the Marxists who succeeded him.

  8. Now wily and ballsy are two words we need to add to the list of Donald Trump’s talents.

    Consider it done:

    List Of Donald Trump’s Talents

    Wily
    Ballsy
    Megalomaniacal
    Obnoxious
    Malicious
    Deceitful
    Adulterous
    Conniving
    Demagogic
    Irresponsible
    Insufferable
    Egotistical
    Erratic
    Unstable

  9. “Donald Trump earns 30% support and Ted Cruz has 23% support when likely caucusgoers are asked who they will caucus for on February 1st. Marco Rubio (16%) and Ben Carson (10%) are in the field’s second tier

    “Cruz’s support has basically held steady since his 24% showing in December when he led the field, while Trump’s support has grown substantially from 19% last month. The current result is Trump’s best showing in any Monmouth Iowa caucus poll since he entered the race. Rubio is off by one point and Carson is down by 3 points since last month’s poll.

  10. I am not interested in trump debating muslims… I am interested in Trump deporting them and banning muslim immigration. The debate about muslims for Trump supporters is long over. You either get what he said and agree or you are still wallowing in PC guilt. Only a fool cannot see that almost all the problems come from Muslims. Debating muslims is another taqiyya red herring to slow down the solution. Fox was probably told by their saudi prince owner to invite the muslim. I am not wondering about whether a specific member of the nazi party killed Jews… I am satisfied with seeing them all dead, for even belonging to the dangerous lunacy.

  11. For all the talk about Islamophobia, it is the emphasis on ‘fear’ of something happening, but it really never actually happens! The data indicates the actual attacks on Muslims has not increased significantly as recorded police files, except in media reporting, and where Muslims enter a country, Anti-semitism actually increases in number and severity in actual police reports. These Muslims are mincing their words and confusing their own fears with non-existent Islamophobic ACTS.
