Muslim U.S. City Bans LGBTQ Flags From City Property: Clash of Islamic Beliefs and Leftist Ideologies (Video)

The reluctance to acknowledge Islamic homophobia among gay rights advocates, left-wing politicians, and the media poses risks to all non-Muslims and undermines the principles they claim to champion.

Hamtramck, Michigan – The clash between leftist ideologies and Islamic beliefs regarding LGBTQ+ rights has once again taken center stage, igniting a controversial debate in the diverse city of Hamtramck. The display of LGBTQ+ Pride flags on government property has become a focal point, revealing tensions and raising questions about the alliance between left-wing principles and Islamic teachings. The discord between the claimed championing of LGBTQ+ rights and the contradictions within Islamic beliefs has left many bewildered and calling for a deeper exploration of the implications surrounding this alliance.

Voted unanimously to ban LGBTQ Pride flags

After months of intense debate and three hours of public comments, the all Muslim Hamtramck City Council voted unanimously on Tuesday night to ban the display of LGBTQ Pride flags on all city properties. Hamtramck became the first city in America to have a majority Muslim population in 2015. This past January, the Council approved the slaughter of animals at residents’ homes for “religious reasons.” The City Council, whose members are all sharia-compliant Muslims, approved the torturous, inhumane, Sharia-slaughter practice that among other Islamic practices, is often used to help fund Islamic terrorism, 3-2.

Mayor Pro Tem Mohammed Hassan introduced the resolution, which also prohibited the display of flags with “racist” and “political views” according to criteria to be determined by the all-Muslim City Council of Hamtramck. Prior to the vote, Hassan delivered a passionate speech, invoking Abraham Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address, emphasizing the importance of respecting the views of the Hamtramck residents.

The Divergence of Opinions: Views on the Future of Hamtramck

The clash of views reflected a divergence in opinions about the future of Hamtramck, a city that experienced a significant 27% increase in population from 2010 to 2020, making it one of the fastest-growing older cities in Michigan.

Hassan and other council members expressed that LGBTQ+ individuals and others are welcome in Hamtramck but stressed the importance of respecting religious freedom. Muslim proponents of the resolution argued that the Pride flag conflicts with their faith. Several speakers from Dearborn, who had previously led protests against LGBTQ+ books, attended the meeting, asserting that American soldiers had fought for the U.S. flag, not the Pride flag.

Opposition and Defense

Hassan Aoun, a resident of Dearborn, voiced his opposition to the opponents of the resolution, stating, “You guys are the ones making problems, not us. Please don’t threaten us. I’m the elected official; I’m working for the people, what the majority of the people like.”

City Councilman Nayeem Choudhury echoed the sentiment of respecting Muslim sensibilities while affirming that LGBTQ+ individuals have equal access to all services in Hamtramck. Choudhury questioned the necessity of displaying the Pride flag on government property, stating, “You guys are welcome. … (but) why do you have to have the flag shown on government property to be represented? You’re already represented. We already know who you are. … By making this (about) bigotry … it’s making it like you want to hate us.”

Mayor Amer Ghalib emphasized the city’s commitment to serving all residents equally, without discrimination or favoritism. The council’s decision may prevent Hamtramck’s Human Relations Commission Chair Russ Gordon from raising the LGBTQ+ flag on a city sidewalk next month, as he had planned to do so, similar to his action in the previous year.

Hamtramck stands out as the city with the highest percentage of immigrants in Michigan, and it is the only city in the United States with an all-Muslim city council and mayor. Known for its vibrant bar and arts scene, the city has also attracted LGBTQ+ individuals and others seeking an alternative and affordable lifestyle.

Supporters of LGBTQ+ rights rallied to defend the community at the council meeting. Darren Shelton, the executive director of Planet Ant Theatre in Hamtramck, declared, “The LGBTQ+ community is the lifeblood of our organization. I don’t think sexuality is a political issue.”

However, many left-wing non-Muslim leaders remained silent on the issue, while some spoke out in defense of the LGBTQ+ community. State Sen. Stephanie Chang, D-Detroit, whose district includes Hamtramck, expressed her support for LGBTQ+ individuals in a statement, assuring them that they have many allies throughout the city and the state.

The Paradox of Leftist Ideologies

Leftist ideologies often position themselves as champions of diversity, inclusivity, and equality. They advocate for the rights of marginalized communities, including the LGBTQ+ community. However, when it comes to the clash between LGBTQ+ rights and Islamic teachings, a paradox emerges. Islamic law, known as Sharia, considers homosexuality a grave sin and prescribes severe punishments, including death. The Quranic verses and hadiths clearly condemn homosexuality, and countries, where Islamic law is implemented, continue to enforce harsh penalties for same-sex relations. This stark contrast between the principles leftists claim to uphold and the beliefs within Islam raises perplexing questions about their alliance.

A closer look at leftism though, makes the alliance less paradoxical. Leftism, like Islam, both are philosophies of global manifest destiny. And both seek to achieve world domination though utter destruction of classical Civilization. The left, through narrative attacks as per Mao and Critical theory from Marx, while Islam seeks to dominate by Jihad, either demographically, financially or through the sword. Since the creation of the Muslim Brotherhood in 1927, each has seen the utility of the other.

The Silence Surrounding Islamic Homophobia

One of the most significant challenges in addressing this issue is the reluctance to acknowledge Islamic homophobia among gay rights advocates, left-wing politicians, and the media. The danger posed by Islamic homophobia is mostly downplayed or ignored, with incidents dismissed as isolated and not representative of Islam’s “true” nature. This refusal to confront the systemic problem of Islamic homophobia puts vulnerable communities, including the LGBTQ+ community and non-Muslims, at risk. By remaining silent, these groups inadvertently perpetuate a narrative that endangers the very principles they claim to champion.

  • If you burn the American flag, then it is protected under free speech/expression(First Ammendment). If you burn a sodomite flag, then it is a hate crime. The term homophobia denotes fear, that is an absurd term. Nobody is afraid of homosexuals. It is aberrant, deviant, and degenerate. People are righteously disgusted, not afraid. The only flag of importance is a Nation’s flag. This should unite people. Good for the city council in Michigan.

    • Well at least the Muslims got some damn guts because the Patriots in this country have done nothing in the last 3 years to stop this destructive perverted satanic treasonous administration and destroying this country and our country has been destroyed it’s just a waiting game for everything to officially collapse the left had not only destroyed this country but the minds of children with the sickest most perverted crap you can think of ,now in some states they can legally take your kid away from you if you don’t agree with their transgenderism which was passed in Washington and California, do you think a Muslims would ever allow that to their kids hell no.

He allowed the Chinese to fly spy balloons over our country and our nuclear weapons bases he allowed them to build police stations in our cities and then he sells a reserve oil to the Chinese and begs to Saudi Arabia to sell us cheap oil it’s clear that the entire administration works for the Communist Chinese he’s destroyed our natural resources our food or water or power he has pitted Americans against Americans with racial hatred and bigotry he is declared war on Christians conservatives Trump supporters pro life if you are any of those or if you disagree with any of the lefts ideology you are now considered domestic terrorist he’s trying to disarm the American people and there is a push to arrest law abiding citizens simply protecting themselves from a career criminals, but he won’t disarm criminals he has weaponized every Federal agency against law abiding Americans he has sent Ukraine 110 billion dollars in taxpayers money plus pretty much all our backup weapons he’s depleted our stockpile of weapons now we’re fucked and that money was all launderd, he gives the Taliban 10 billion dollars worth of military hardware which is a total game changer for them during the pull out and then American citizen were killed trying to get out of Afghanistan everything that he has done is treason beyond anything we can imagine, and if that’s not enough he has gotten us literally involved in a war with the Russians world war 3. AND AFTER ALL THIS THE PATRIOTS STILL HAVE DONE NOTHING AS FAR AS IM CONCERNED THERE NOTHING BUT A BUNCH OF FUCKING COWARDS AT LEAST THE MUSLIMS GOT SOME DAMN BALLS. I DON’T WANT TO SEE PEOPLE CELEBRATING THE 4TH OF JULY UNLESS THEY’RE VETERANS, THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DON’T DESERVE TO, BECAUSE WE ARE UNDER FULL COMMUNIST CONTROL!!! I DON’T KNOW WHAT PISSES ME OFF MORE THE FACT THAT THAT SHIT FUCK BIDEN DESTROYED OUR COUNTRY OR THE COWARDS THAT LET HIM DO IT !!!!!

      • Jon Gale,

        Well, look at what happened January 6, which was a peaceful protest. Government agencies have been weaponized against Patriots. People are in prison for 20 years on bogus charges. Third world justice. So, if you wish to revolt, then you will get bent over, screwed, and no happy meal.

        • So your solution is to do nothing is that it because the way I see it the only way you’re going to take this country back is by force this isn’t what I want I’m 53 years old I’m dying of cancer all I want to do is die in peace I don’t want to see millions

          of people get killed but if you have another way they’re genius I’d be curious to know what that is cuz you sure as hell ain’t going to take this country back by diplomacy.

        • And also the more complacent that people are, the more power that the left get. Your solution to do nothing sounds like a cowards way out. I’d almost be willing to be used as Cannon folder I’m dying anyway might as well make it count right. You will not take this country back by diplomacy dude I’m telling you right now I’m not that smart but even I can see that it has to be thru force. But maybe you got some magic and some blue unicorns somewhere that’ll save the day. I’M ALL EARS!!!

        • I don’t know if you’re talking about me Amy but if you are thank you I admire your courage your strength I just wish to God we had more people like you 🙏❤️ God bless you darlin!!
