The 'Muslim Martin Luther' Has Been Convicted of Rape
ULULULULULULULU!!! We’ve been watching the smug little soft-jhadist brush off responsibility for years, protected by the Liberal Establishment. What a triumph of bourgeois Swiss obstinacy to hold all to the same standard, no matter how starry-eyed his admirers in academic circles.
[PJMedia] Tariq Ramadan, a Muslim intellectual
…I would have gone with Islamist scholar, as he most eruditely alternates between taqqiya and apologetics. His father was the son-in-law and personal secretary of Hassan al-Banna, founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, then was promoted to public ideologue and the MB Big Turban in Western Europe, setting up Islamic Centers across the region for the organization. The Islamic Center of Munich mosque ended up as Papa Ramadan’s headquarters, and little Tariq marinated in it until he was sent to do dawa in his own way, which clearly included the fun jihad of seduction and rape…
who has been one of the foremost exponents, at least to non-Muslims in Europe and North America, of Islamic reform, has been convicted of rape.

It is impossible to overstate how shocking this is for those who have praised Ramadan to the skies for so very long. For many years, Tariq Ramadan was the darling of the Western intelligentsia. In 2002, Salon hailed him as "the Muslim Martin Luther." In 2004, Time Magazine listed him as one of the 100 most influential people in the world today. In 2012, Foreign Policy included him on its list of the top 100 global thinkers "for telling us that Islam and democracy can go together — just when it matters."

Now those accolades, and the many others that Ramadan received, stand as mute witness to the left’s tendency to shower with honors those who tell it what it wants to hear. Agence France-Presse (AFP) reported Tuesday that Ramadan has been "convicted on appeal of rape and sexual coercion by a Geneva court." This has been a long time coming, as Ramadan has faced numerous accusations in recent years of "masking violence and radicalism behind a mild facade."

For years, Ramadan dismissed such allegations as "racism" and "Islamophobia." In a Dec. 2019 video, he claimed that the accusations against him were all an attempt to discredit him and thereby "neutralize the Muslims." He added: "We have to be clear that there is discrimination, stigmatization, racism that is at stake in the whole issue. And I was a symbol. To destroy me meant, let the people understand: If you want to be vocal you have to face the reality. It happened to Tariq Ramadan now, it could happen to anyone in the future."

Even worse, RFI reported in 2020, after two more women accused him of rape, that "supporters of Ramadan, who is a professor of contemporary Islamic studies at Oxford’s St. Anthony’s College, have called the accusations against him part of a ’international Zionist plot’ to blacken his name." Of course!

Islam teaches that everything and every non-Muslim in subjugated lands is the property of Muslims.

It isn't theft or rape if it isn't illegal.
