Texas: Apartment Complex Manager Calls New Tenant’s US Flag A “Threat To The Muslim Community”

06/20/2014 3 comments

There must have been a sizable number of Muslims living in the apartment complex for the manager to claim that the American flag was a “threat” to the Muslims living there. Sounds like a “no-go zone” in the making if you ask me, one where the oppressive Black Flag of Al-Qaeda would have likely been embraced in the spirit of “multiculturalism” over anything else that still stood for religious freedom and the right to call Mohammed the false prophet that he was. The fact of the matter is that it is the Muslim community itself with its “divine” Sharia Laws that threatens the fabric of the American flag and the freedoms for which it stands, not the other way around. And as for any citizen in America who would be “offended” by the sight of the American flag? They shouldn’t even be a citizen at all …

Qur’an Sura 18:26, “[Allah] maketh none to share in his government.”

By Alice Barr, KHOU News – “A Webster man says his apartment complex manager told him his American flag was a ‘threat to the Muslim community,’ and that he has to take it down. But he’s not giving up without a fight.

Stepping onto Duy Tran’s balcony in Webster, one thing is clear: ‘It means a lot to me,’ he said.

He’s talking about his American flag that he proudly put up when he moved in just a few days ago. But then an apartment manager at the Lodge on El Dorado told him he had to take it down.

‘What really stunned me is that she said it’s a threat towards the Muslim community,’ said Tran. ‘I’m not a threat toward anybody.’

We tried to ask a manager if that’s exactly what was said, but she just handed us a statement, refused to answer any questions, and called an officer to escort us off the property, before we could press any further:

“While the Lodge on El Dorado admires our resident’s patriotism, we must enforce our property rules and guidelines. Such guidelines maintain the aesthetics of our apartment community and provide for the safety of all residents. The apartment community already proudly displays our country’s flag in a safe and appropriate manner at the entrances to our community.”

But we saw other patriotic symbols hanging from other balconies in the complex, and Tran doesn’t plan to budge.

‘I’m gonna leave my flag there, as an American, until she shows me proof that I don’t have the right to leave my flag there,’ said Tran.

To Tran it’s about so much more than stars and stripes.

‘I have friends that died for this country,’ he said.

So he says this fight is the least he can do.

We have not heard of any residents complaining about any flags at the complex, or any of the patriotic items we saw. In fact, we spoke to several neighbors who say they want Tran’s flag to stay.” Source – KHOU News.

Second Wave: Doctors Without Borders Official Warns Ebola Virus Is Now “Totally Out Of Control” In West Africa

06/20/2014 1 comment

Breitbart – “The Ebola outbreak ravaging West Africa is ‘totally out of control,’ according to a senior official for Doctors Without Borders, who says the medical group is stretched to the limit in its capacity to respond.

International organizations and the governments involved need to send in more health experts and to increase the public education messages about how to stop the spread of the disease, Bart Janssens, the director of operations for the group in Brussels, told The Associated Press on Friday.

Ebola has already been linked to more than 330 deaths in Guinea, Sierra Leone and Liberia, according to the latest numbers from the World Health Organization.

‘The reality is clear that the epidemic is now in a second wave,’ Janssens said. ‘And, for me, it is totally out of control.’

The outbreak, which began in Guinea either late last year or early this year, had appeared to slow before picking up pace again in recent weeks, including spreading to the Liberian capital for the first time.

‘I’m absolutely convinced that this epidemic is far from over and will continue to kill a considerable amount of people, so this will definitely end up the biggest ever,’ he said.

The multiple locations of the outbreak and its movement across borders make it one of the ‘most challenging Ebola outbreaks ever,’ Fadela Chaib, a spokeswoman for the World Health Organization, said earlier in the week.

The outbreak shows no sign of abating and that governments and international organizations were ‘far from winning this battle,’ Unni Krishnan, head of disaster preparedness and response for Plan International, said Friday.

But Janssens’ description of the Ebola outbreak was even more alarming, and he warned that the governments affected had not recognized the gravity of the situation. He criticized the World Health Organization for not doing enough to prod leaders and said that it needs to bring in more experts to do the vital work of tracing all of the people who have been in contact with the sick.

‘There needs to be a real political commitment that this is a very big emergency,’ he said. ‘Otherwise, it will continue to spread, and for sure it will spread to more countries.'” Read more.
