The Queering of American Islam

Linda Harvey

The new mayor of New York City is a Muslim communist who advocates sharia law. He also supports “LGBTQ” rights.

While a collaboration like this is a head scratcher, it’s been going on for several decades at least. The majority of Muslims in America vote with the Democratic Party, the party of sexual perversion and abortion until birth. Pew Research revealed that 52% of American Muslims accept homosexuality.

How do we understand this?

Each side has its reasons which may or may not be articulated frequently. Or even be logical. The homosexual/trans movement is looking for any group that stands in hostility to Judeo-Christian faith and values, even working for the collapse of America. Without a doubt, the Islamists are also more aggressively unleashing jihad in the U.S. as they are globally. These are the folks who raped and slaughtered Jews on October 7, 2023, and are today beheading Christian mothers as they nurse their babies. Yet the worldwide media sleeps.                                                                                                                                   

So how to explain the Muslims embracing the queer lobby in America.?

It’s not hard to understand why Islamists join forces with blacks and other people of color. Many Muslims are people of color. As minorities, their common goals are much more understandable. Yet homosexuality and gender deviance? Traditionally, Islam is deeply opposed to these behaviors.

We know the motives of the “gay” lobby. Trying desperately to tie themselves to DEI and race, homosexuals and transgenders claim they too form an “ethnicity” or a “marginalized community.” In fact, as we all know, it’s not a fit. This is sinful, disordered, changeable behavior, not an inborn, neutral condition.

Skin color has no intrinsic politics, and doesn’t change, but sinful behavior or misguided faith can. A person can leave the bondage of Islam behind. And many have, just as many have turned away from homosexuality and gender deviance.

But those committed to the hard-hearted confusion of “Allah” or the depraved pointlessness of “LGBTQ” behaviors share a common enemy: the Lord Jesus Christ. So spiritually, they are being led away from salvation by a determined foe who will use any subterfuge available.

Tactically speaking, the “LGBTQ” ground force is very useful to the anti-Semitic, pro-sharia Islamist movement. The sexually sinful are often relentless, vicious, and willing to lie and cheat without blinking an eye. They help load another victimhood spin about Islam onto America.

To be fair, not all U.S.-based Muslims are ruthless progenitors of jihad. Some have assimilated, love American freedom, and even serve honorably in our military. Some are conservative and are appalled at the excesses of sexual sin and child corruption.

Several years ago, I joined a group from Protect Ohio Children who were invited to address the congregants at a mosque in Columbus at the end of their Friday services. We spoke to about 200 people at each service.

One of the men in our group introduced us, and then I spoke by myself for 10 minutes, sharing what we knew about the radical, depraved sex education underway in Columbus Public Schools, which includes normalization of homosexuality and gender confusion.

I could see from facial expressions of the all -male audience that they were horrified. They care about their children. And, if they trusted us and believed us, they probably took action to make it stop. Most were immigrants.

We do not know what actions they took. But our job was to take this opportunity to share what we knew to help families protect their children.

This was a working class group, and like many other sub-cultures in America, Muslims too have their hierarchies. It seems to me that the pro-homosexual Muslims are likely concentrated among the economic and education elites and their corrupt politicians.

Many of these ally with “queer” forces of destruction— Ilhan Omar, Rashida Tlaib,  Linda Sarsour. They are leaving behind the Islam of Louis Farrakhan, who is strongly anti-homosexual but unfortunately also rabidly anti-Semitic.

A whole crop of far-left Muslim groups with “LGBTQ” sympathies are now operative. The Muslim Alliance of Sexual and Gender Diversity lists many of their recommended partners and they are strange bedfellows indeed.

Masjid al-Rabia in Chicago “advocates on behalf of women, queer and trans people and other marginalized Muslims.” The group also has a prison outreach and “youth LGBTQ programming for Ramadan.” In Washington, DC resides the “Light of Reform” Mosque, a “queer-led”  Muslim prayer group. And also in DC, the Mecca Institute is “focused on women, LGBT, and the youth. It is a theological school and think tank that focuses on Progressive Islam.”

Sexually confused youth.  Prison converts. Angry feminists. These easy-to-manipulate sub-groups serve a core purpose to advance the goals of radical Islam in America. They help point the finger of blame on anyone but themselves—Jews, Christians, Republicans—and diffuse American outrage when real incidents of Muslim terrorism stoke fear and take lives.

The Pulse nightclub shooting is a perfect example of the intersection of Muslim murder and loony leftist apologies.

The Pulse nightclub in Orlando was a “gay” club and where in 2016, 49 were killed and 58 wounded by a Muslim American who had just sworn allegiance to ISIS.

Yet immediately after these cold-blooded murders, here was the statement from the Muslim Alliance of Sexual and Gender Diversity, claiming that Islam does not advocate such mass murder, and the fault? Guns, of course.

           “There is no religious justification or precedent in Islam for mass shootings targeting any population, regardless of identity.   This tragedy is a reminder of the terrible harm that can result from the availability and proliferation of guns, and acts of violence by individuals whose own values conflict with those of most people in the U.S., Muslims included, which hold human life to be sacred. With that in mind, we call for a renewal of the national conversation around strengthening gun control.”

How useful it was to have an alleged homosexual/Muslim group quickly discourage blaming Islam or Muslim values for this shooting. The disturbed Muslim man who pulled the trigger over and over—it was not his fault, nor his affiliation with the terror group ISIS. No, it was the usual leftist talking point— the guns just jumped up and did this on their own.

Does this seem just a bit too wrapped up and tied in a bow?

And “no precedent for mass shootings” was an outright lie then and remains so today. Muslim jihad has ruthlessly taken countless lives and still does today in Israel, Nigeria, the Congo, Mozambique—the heartbreaking list is long.

So the American media remains uncurious and fails to probe the obvious manipulation going on. Consider  “Queers for Palestine” in recent years screaming for more harm to Jews and Israel, while blocking/interrupting “pride” parades. Many Muslims were reportedly repulsed by these alleged “queers.” Pew Research showed that 93% of people in Gaza oppose homosexuality.  Who are “Queers for Palestine,” really?

Many suspect that funding and support from Iran and other Muslim countries is behind much of this disinformation. Certainly much of the anti-Israel sentiment on campuses is funded by foreign actors, Qatar and Iran among others. The goal is to radicalize the Democrat Party through the “intersectionality” of disparate groups who all hate traditional values, the rule of law in America, and will actively work toward ( or stupidly go along with) de-stabilizing American society.

The objective is the suicide of America. Unless we stop it.

Please pray that the Lord will show us how to bring as many of these reprobates as possible to know Him, and how to protect ourselves from those who turn away.
