DebbieSchlussel.com learned this evening that Palestinian Muslim leader, immigration defrauder, and FBI award revokee Imad Hamad has been accused of sexual harassment by Palestinian Muslim Michigan State Representative Rashida Tlaib. In a letter received by DebbieSchlussel.com late Friday afternoon, Tlaib claimed that she and many other women were sexually harassed by Hamad. The letter is below (click on the letter to read the whole thing). The married, devout Muslim Hamad is the Senior National Advisor for the Muslim-dominated, openly pro-HAMAS/Hezbollah American Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) and the Midwest Regional Director for the organization. And, predictably, the ADC ignored alleged repeated complaints by several women about Hamad’s groping and other physical and verbal harassment. That’s the Islamic and Arabic way.

As longtime readers know, Hamad, a Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorist was to receive an award from the FBI in 2003, but the reward was revoked after a column I wrote exposing Hamad in the New York Post. The FBI thanked me and told me he is the subject of over a dozen terrorist and immigration related investigations. Hamad who was born in the terrorist hotbed of Ein El-Hilweh refugee camp in Lebanon, came to the United States in the early 1980s on a student visa and violated that visa. There is no record that he ever attended classes, and he engaged in a sham marriage to a woman with U.S. citizenship with whom he did not live. He was allegedly caught on FBI surveillance tape recruiting and raising money for the PFLP, which is on the State Department terrorist list and which is responsible for the murder of Israeli tourism minister Rechavam Ze’evi, as well as many other murders and homicide bombings. The U.S. government fought to deport Hamad for over two decades, but under pressure from U.S. Senator Carl Levin, the Clinton Administration finally gave in, and he is now a U.S. citizen, despite marriage and immigration fraud. Hamad has gone on Detroit local television stations and praised Palestinian Authority TV for teaching three-year-olds to become homicide bombers, which Hamad called “patriotic.” He was quoted in the Detroit media, asking if it is okay to wear Hezbollah t-shirts. He called Hezbollah–the terrorist group which murdered hundreds of Americans–“the heroes.” Read the rest of this entry »

Since we’re fast becoming a mediocre nation (and maybe we are already there), I guess it’s not that surprising that Hollywood serves us up a mediocre selection of new movies at theaters, this weekend. I didn’t hate any of the new movies, this weekend, but I didn’t love ’em either:

* “Now You See Me“: I was really looking forward to this movie, but it was a disappointment. I love everything about or involving magic, magicians, and the like. But this–while parading to be about that–was really a left-wing screed against corporations and big business. The magicians in this movie are more con artist and crook than anything else. Their “magic tricks” are really crimes against rich men and big businesses “because they deserve it,” giving the money to the poor “because they deserve it.” This leftist modern-day-Robin-Hood-on-steroids shtick is gettin’ old. And the ending was unsatisfying and silly. The rule of a good thriller is that there is at least some hint about who the culprit or the “who” in the “whodunit” is. Not so in this movie, and so when you find out who it is and why, you feel let down. Or, at least, that’s how I felt. That said, I’d be lying if I said the movie wasn’t entertaining, clever, and different from the non-stop slurry of sequels du jour. I enjoyed the movie to a point and it moves quickly. There is a lot of action and car chases, etc. to add to the illusions. But I didn’t like the message or the poorly constructed plot. Read the rest of this entry »

You might have heard about Nicole Lynn Mansfield, the Michigan chick who converted to Islam and is now a dead terrorist in Syria and whose Michigan driver’s license has been all over the news. But what you probably don’t know is why she converted to Islam and how she ended up on this path. Mansfield married an illegal alien Arab Muslim (of the stellar variety to whom Marco Rubio wants to extend a “path to citizenship”), who divorced her once he got his green card. And she is also a typical Muslim skank hypocrite: she’s a babymama to kids with several men (from all of whom she sought child support). The question is whether or not Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) will revoke the man’s green card, now that we know the marriage was a complete sham. If I bet the house on it, the answer would be an easy “no.”

Mansfield, 33 of Flint, Michigan, converted to Islam in 2008, when she married Muslim Arab illegal alien Ayman Mohammed Bafil. But as soon as he got his legal permanent residence (LPR a/k/a “green card”), he divorced her, and in 2011, Bafil got a marriage license to marry another Michigan moronette, Theresa Nicole Rutgers. (And he probably won’t be prosecuted or lose his LPR for it–he’ll probably get U.S. citizenship. They all do.) They didn’t have children, and the marriage was clearly a sham in order to commit immigration fraud. But she did have children with countless other men in Michigan, many of whom owe her child support. Hey, let’s hear it for that same ole’ “Islamic modesty.” Read the rest of this entry »

Today, Joe Namath–one of my favorite athletes of all time and definitely my favorite NFL player–turns 70.

This pic, which I love, is on my fridge . . .

Yes, he had his drunk moment asking Suzy Kolber to kiss him on national TV. But that’s not the Joe Willie Namath I’m talking about. The Joe Namath I’m talking about is the cool, fur-coat-wearing (and sometimes pantyhose-wearing, but for warmth only) man of the ’69s and ’70s. He exuded cool. Read the rest of this entry »

Remember when I told you about Manssor Arbabsiar, the Iranian who was caught plotting to murder the Saudi Ambassador to the U.S. and American officials–all on U.S. soil and on behalf of the Iranian government? Well, he pleaded guilty yesterday, and we couldn’t help but notice that he has an uncanny resemblance to a certain American porn star . . . Ron Jeremy (minus the ’70s Bruce Kardashian, er . . . Jenner haircut).

NEW YORK: An Iranian-born used car salesman from Texas was sentenced to 25 years in a U.S. prison Thursday after pleading guilty to participating in a plot with an Iranian military unit to murder the Saudi Arabian Ambassador to the United States. Read the rest of this entry »

Last night, Arvind V. Mahankali, the 13-year-old who won the Scripps National Spelling Bee. But I call foul on this. And there’s a lot of political correctness involved–the attempt to water down English along with our national borders and everything else.

You see, Mahankali won the Spelling Bee by “correctly” spelling the word, “knaidel.” But, in fact, there is no correct spelling of that word because it’s transliterated from Yiddish–the German/Hebrew hybrid language used by mostly Ashkenazic Jews primarily back in Europe. If you’re like me–a Jewish kid who grew up in a knowledgeable Jewish family in America, pre-2000s, you know the word. My mother and both my grandmothers made chicken soup with knaidels or kneidlach (the Yiddish plural of the word), which are essentially matzoh (or matza or matzah) balls–light, porous, doughy Jewish versions of soup croutons (and much more delectable and fun). If you’ve had chicken soup with matzoh balls, you’ve had knaidlach or k’naydlach (or however you want to spell it).

But there is NO correct English spelling of the word. In fact, you can spell it knaydle, or keneidle, knaidl, or k’naydel (and many other ways–all of which you’ll find on Google). It’s neither an English language word or a word that was originally spelled in any particular way in the English language, since it doesn’t come from that language, nor was it originally written using the English alphabet. There is NO correct English spelling of the word, just as there isn’t, for example, a correct spelling of Mohammed or Muhammad or Mohamad (with apologies for the comparison of a nice Jewish soup crouton to the name of a persecuting warrior who has inspired 1.8 billion worldwide to either engage in savage terrorist killings and or reprehensible behavior or morally support those who do).

If you are an American with attractive daughters, be on the lookout for Sheikh Abdul Aziz bin Ali al Nuaimi a/k/a the “Green Sheikh.” 47-year-old jetsetting Sheikh Abdul Aziz is the Crown Prince and nephew of the ruler of Ajman, the smallest of the seven emirates that make up the United Arab Emirates (UAE). He’s been hailed all over the West as an environmentalist and leader in the “Green” movement, and he gets a lot of media attention and accolades for it (and his doctorate from some Australian university). But deep down, he’s just another Islamo-scoundrel apparently hitting on Western chicks and trying to lure them to the Emirates, where who knows what will happen to them? This is his “outreach” to “youth.”

DebbieSchlussel.com has learned that, recently, the Green Sheikh drove with his fancy security entourage to visit a young Chicago-area girl and her working-class family. Sources say that the Sheikh, who brags that he has just one wife (which actually means nothing–as that doesn’t rule out a large, well-stocked harem on the side), promised the girl a job at a “six star” hotel in Ajman, if she travels there. And the family, reportedly, is dazzled by the “worldliness” and wealth of the Prince. I think it’s pretty obvious why the Green Sheikh is suddenly so interested in the young, working-class Chicago girl, and it’s not because of her hotel management skills. Once she gets there, she will be subject to Islamic, Ajman, and UAE laws and not the freedoms of America. That means, she will be his for the taking, if he so chooses, per shariah. And it’s pretty clear, he’s doing some pretty hardball “choosing” of the girl already. It will be different, once she is no longer under the purview of American law.

Despite his claims of supporting the environment, the Green Sheikh’s real goal is to use that to promote Islam and jihad under the guise of New Age BS, to the younger generations of the world.

He gives out his business card freely with his email “greensheikh@gmail.com” saying “people can reach me at any time. We sheikhs are from the people and we should never forget that.” His official role is as the environmental adviser to the Ajman Government, where he is also chairman of Green Base Environmental Services and the founder of the Majlis for Holistic Knowledge and Holistic Health. His philosophy brings a new age touch to the teachings of Islam. “Self jihad is critical to living a good and holistic life,” he says. . . . Read the rest of this entry »

Throughout 2012–before and AFTER the Presidential elections–I heard from many whiny anti-Semites on the right who blamed the Jews for Obama’s financing and re-election. I asked them if they were willing to give back the $100 million JEWISH casino mogul Sheldon Adelson gave to finance Mitt Romney’s campaign for President and those of many Congressional Republicans. And, of course, there usually wasn’t a response. Full disclosure: I’ve met and know Adelson, and he maxed out in donating to my campaign for the Michigan House of Representatives when I ran and lost by just one vote. He’s a very cool guy. So proud to be American and so proud to be Jewish, too. I don’t agree with him on everything (he’s socially more liberal than I am), but on the important business, national security, and Middle East issues, he’s spot on (except the “two-state” pollution business). And I think the son of a Lithuanian-born cab driver (and publisher of Israel’s most popular newspaper, Israel Hayom [Israel Today]) would have been a better candidate for office than Romney and many of that ilk. In case you haven’t read his interview in The New York Times and another in the Los Angeles Times, they are great stuff. I like him because he is willing to tell the stark, honest truth, whereas many American Jews of his stature and prominence are far too wimpy and politically correct to do so. Here are the important excerpts:

New York Times quotes Adelson . . .

He trashed the prospects for peace with the Palestinians. He tried to school American reporters on the history of the Middle East. . . .

Asked about Secretary of State John Kerry’s plan to infuse as much as $4 billion into the economy of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, much of it to build tourism, Mr. Adelson responded, “Why would I want to invest money with people who want to kill my people?” Read the rest of this entry »

Now, I’ve heard everything. An Iranian woman who apparently attempted to poison Starbucks customers gets away with it, and her lawyer threatens me for writing about it. Yup, that’s what happens in America today. And, too often, people are scared away from the truth because of it. Because of empty, baseless threats by lawyers.

Recently, I told you about Ramineh (also spelled “Romineh”) Behbehanian, an Iranian pharmacist, who ran off after replacing orange juice bottles at a San Jose Starbucks and after customers and employees who saw her do it, smelled rubbing alcohol and liquid acetone when they opened the bottles. After they called the police on her, Behbehanian was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, because San Jose authorities detected lethal amounts of rubbing alcohol in the bottles.

Well, Behbehanian lucked out and skated. On Friday, San Jose authorities decided they would decline to charge Behbehanian because later tests could not determine the alcohol and because they felt they could not prove that she put apparent foreign substances in the bottles. Now, we are being told that the rubbing alcohol that customers and employees smelled and that San Jose authorities tested lethal dosages of in the bottles was “just vinegar.” Uh-huh. “Just vinegar” in orange juice bottles at Starbucks? Riiight. And why did Behbehanian replace the bottles (as customers saw her do)? We’ll never know “for sure,” but I think we have a pretty good idea why.

But what I do know is that three days before authorities said they would drop the charges against her, Romineh Behbehanian hired lawyer J. Peter Shearer to send me a ridiculous and threatening letter. Yup, the very definition of chutzpah. She gets away with it and instead of being embarrassed and going away, she hires a lawyer to threaten me. Check out his absurd letter, below, and my response. I get letters demanding retraction like this from time to time, but they never go anywhere because I don’t engage in defamation and I’m not easily threatened and intimidated. I check my facts, do my homework, and also use mainstream media sources. But, hey, Pete Shearer made an easy, quick buck with empty, baseless threats. If you want to respond to lawyer Peter Shearer as I have, e-mail him at pete@pierceshearer.com. Read his letter and my response . . . Read the rest of this entry »

I try to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to America–giving their lives so that we would and will continue to be free–every single day, on this site and in the work I do outside of it. We need to remember those who gave their lives for America every single day, not just on one day of the year.

But I have mixed emotions on this Memorial Day 2013. That’s because, yesterday, an experience I had brought starkly into my mind the contrasts and ironies involved in remembering those who died overseas (and on U.S. soil) in service to our country and to keep us free, while our enemies flourish on U.S. soil and nearly make their deaths ones that were in vain. Every day, young Americans–mostly men, and most of them so young, they are really almost kids–continue to die in Afghanistan, as they also died in Iraq, for no apparent reason, other than to pretend we are fighting to change the prevailing Islamic dynamic overseas. And at the same time they are fighting and dying over there, that prevailing Islamic dynamic takes over here on U.S. soil, so that future generations like those young boys who died will become future generations like the victims of Fort Hood and Lee Rigby on the streets of London, as we do nothing while extremists continue to invade and use the laws and freedoms our soldiers died for to take all of those freedoms away in the long term in the name of Islam.

Yesterday, at the gym while running on the treadmill, I was thinking:

Our soldiers died so I can and others here can do mindless, selfish things like work out at this gym and do it without wearing a burka or getting beheaded. And no one here is thinking about that. They’re thinking about Memorial Day sales and picnics and a day off. We are a lucky, but spoiled country. We don’t appreciate what we have, what our soldiers fought and died for, and it will come back to hurt us. They didn’t die for us to pay ten bucks and waste time watching garbage like “The Hangover Part III” and mindlessness like “Fast and Furious 6.” But that’s what America’s young generations are thinking about and spending their time and parents’ dollars on, NOT what this solemn weekend is supposed to be about. Heck, the solemnity doesn’t exist in Ameria, anymore, among younger generations and their parents who taught them it wasn’t important.

Then, on the way home, I stopped at a dollar store to buy some white vinegar (I pour some in the wash when I do laundry). In front of me in line to pay was a woman in a niqab–the Muslim full ninja outfit for women, so that this woman’s nose and chin won’t turn some out-of-control Muslim men into sudden rapists and so that those men don’t have to exercise an iota of control that we, here in Western civilization, expect modern men to exercise. And I see more and more and more of these women in niqabs in my neighborhood every single year. That’s because while our men our dying over there–have died over there in the thousands and maimed and lost limbs in the tens of thousands–and while our men over the centuries gave their lives, whether it was fighting the Nazis and Japanese or fighting each other to keep the Union together or fighting the British in the name of our independence, now it seems we have forgotten that sacrifice on a daily basis, as we do nothing to fight the future loss of all of that with the daily encroachment and spread of extremist Islam across American soil, from shore to shore.
