A Palestinian activist has called for dogs to be banned as pets in New York City claiming they aren’t Islamic.
Nerdeen Kiswani said dogs have a ‘place in society’ but ‘not as indoor pets.’
‘Like we’ve said all along, they are unclean,’ she wrote on X.
After receiving fierce backlash she later claimed that her post was a ‘joke’.
‘[Laughing] at the Zionists frothing at the mouth at this, thinking they’re doing something,’ she wrote.
For Zionists read Jews.
It’s obviously a joke I don’t care if you have a dog, I do care if your dog is s***ting everywhere and you’re not cleaning it.
Yeah, sure.
[…] Kiswani gained notoriety for leading Pro-Palestine protests in New York City with her organization Within Our Lifetime (WOL), which calls for the eradication of Israel.
She led several rallies across the boroughs, where protesters marched down busy streets chanting for the ‘full liberation of Palestine’ and ‘from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free.’
She poked ire with Jewish New Yorkers after WOL suggested the October 7 massacre, where more than 200 Israelis were taken hostage and 1,400 died, was justified.
[…] Kiswani’s activism goes back to the early 2010s.
In 2022, Kiswani shared a meme of the Little Miss children’s cartoon character on her Instagram page in 2022 that read: ‘Little Miss telling everyone Israel is [sic] will be wiped off the map inshallah [God willing].’
She was accused of anti-Semitism that same year after delivering a speech for CUNY Law School in Queens, New York, in which she excoriated ‘Zionists’ and condemned ‘normalizing’ trips to Israel.”
In other words, she is a real piece of work.
At the risk of evoking the slippery slope argument I’d say that this is the just the start.
Islamists in New York have been emboldened by the election of a Muslim mayor.
What next?
Will New Yorkers be banned from eating bacon near a mosque?
Will images of Mohammed be banned from places where Muslims can see them?
Will there be ‘Muslim-friendly’ parks where not only dogs are banned but other un-Islamic activities, such as playing chess (yes, even chess is banned in some Islamic countries).
The thing is, Jews don’t care if you eat bacon. Catholics don’t care if you don’t go to church. Vegetarians don’t care if you each meat (vegans I’m not sure about).
In other words, stop trying to force your religion down other people’s throat.
