Hijacking of Debate 101
✅@cnn @guardian: @Ilhan scolds “audience member” who asks Q on FGM,clitoris cutting
✅@nowthisnews: Q“biased”
✅Sarsour, CAIR, AlJazeera Mehdi Hasan #honorbrigade: launch attack
✅She’s “Islamophobic”etc
👉🏼 She’s brave MUSLIM @AniZonneveld @mpvusa

The @DNC must rethink its dangerous choice to take up the cause of the radical Muslim lobby, which shuts down critical debate over questions like FGM, homophobia, Islamism, terrorism & gender apartheid among Muslims, even berating brave Muslims like @AniZonneveld @mpvusa.

What @Ilhan expresses with her disrespect of a progressive liberal such as @AniZonneveld @mpvusa is the hate by the radical Muslim lobby (including CAIR, Linda Sarsour & AlJazeera proxies) against Muslim reformers who challenge Islamists. We live it everyday.

What the radical Muslim lobby has adopted is a stance pioneered by Linda Sarsour (who said once she should copyright it) of being “unapologetically Muslim” but what that means is not discussing tough, real life issues within Islam, like extremism.

I write from Paris, where extremist Muslims assassinated cartoonists for “dishonoring” Islam. Character assassinations, as #honorbrigade now launches on @AniZonneveld, a Muslim, seek to silence debate. Stay strong, Ani.
