One of the largest presences on the left today, filmmaker Michael Moore, has brought us the latest example of the West’s overpowering self-hatred, even to the point of civilizational suicide. After the massacre in a supermarket in Boulder, Colorado, Moore tweeted: “The life of Ahmad Al Aliwi Alissa shows that people can come from all over the world and truly assimilate into our beloved American culture.” To drive his point home, Moore attached to the tweet a photo of the Statue of Liberty, implying that all the racist, redneck, Trump-supporting, gun-toting right-wing “terrorists” of Moore’s fever dreams think that it is a core American value to carry a rifle into a crowded supermarket and open fire on the unsuspecting shoppers.
Reality is, of course, worlds away from Moore’s hateful, anti-American hysteria. The gunman, Ahmad Al Issa (which is how he himself wrote his name on his Facebook and Twitter accounts) is a Muslim migrant from Syria who is devout in his observance of Islam and is reportedly an ISIS sympathizer. Michael Moore may not know it and wouldn’t admit if he did, but the Qur’an and Sunnah contain numerous exhortations for warfare against non-Muslims (see Qur’an 2:191, 4:89, 8:39, 9:5, 9:29, etc.).
In light of all this and more, it is much more likely that rather than assimilating into American culture, Al Issa was acting upon beliefs, attitudes, and assumptions that are rooted in Islamic culture. But that is the last thing that Michael Moore and his ilk would be willing to admit. Regardless of what he may know or not know about Islam, Michael Moore would stoutly defend Islamic culture, insisting that Islam is a religion of peace and that there is nothing whatsoever in Islamic texts, teachings, or cultural attitudes that would lead to a mass killing of non-Muslims.
Moore would do this because he knows that if he didn’t, and if he admitted that Islam is not a religion of peace and actually contains doctrines of violence, he would be denounced and vilified as “Islamophobic” and summarily canceled, unable to produce his “documentaries” and shunned by all his former friends. But he can denigrate American culture and imply that mass murder is a core American value and not only will no one mind except a few grumpy conservatives, but leftists all over the country will be nodding their heads in agreement. Their culture is one of self-hatred, of contempt for their own heritage, tradition, and country. Slamming the United States is not only acceptable, but laudable, but woe betide Moore if he ever dared say the slightest negative or critical word about Islamic culture.
How did this odd state of affairs come to be, that an American who has been wildly successful and grown wealthy and influential in the country of his birth would have no problem expressing open and undisguised contempt for one of its most revered symbols, as well as for its core values? How has it come to be that adherents of an aggressive, violent, supremacist ideology could attack Michael Moore’s home country and murder three thousand Americans, as well as many more in other attacks in Boston, San Bernardino, Orlando, Fort Hood, and elsewhere, and Ahmad Al Issa appears to share their murderous world view, and yet Moore would never even come close to daring to utter the mildest critical word about that ideology?
Most Americans, especially on the left, take this situation for granted today, and have no problem bashing what used to be known as the freest society on earth, while they have been well-trained to consider any opposition to jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women and others to be “Islamophobic.” The cultural and societal self-hatred is not as strong among conservatives, although there are some who are so eager to appease leftists that they turn a blind eye to it or rationalize it in various ways (yes, Mr. French, I’m talking about you).

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
