Considering the massive fraud that has taken place in Minnesota recently in the U.S., primarily in the Somali community in Minnesota, and the persistent denials of any complicity by congresswoman Ilhad Omar, it's no wonder that the perception and reputation of Somalians has taken a major blow. The total tally of the money stolen in the fraudulent acts is in the neighborhood of $9-10 billion. Some of the programs that were to be funded by the stolen money not only leave the taxpaying public shaking their heads, it leaves hearts broken. Food for needy children and families, help and support for autistic children, you get the idea. And the stolen funds have been used to buy luxury cars and homes, international vacations, jewelry... It's beyond disgusting. Many of the depraved offenders have been caught, tried, and convicted. There are many more yet to be caught. All of the offenders are not Somalian, but the vast majority are. And the epicenter of the fraud is the district represented by none other than Representative Ilhad Omar, a Somali immigrant. Both the optics and the reality are obscene.
Amongst what appears to be a group of immigrants with no conscience, morals or values is an example of a fine human being who happens to be quite intelligent. And who is also a Somali immigrant. After President Trump took the stage at the World Economic Forum in Davos to declare that Western civilization must defend itself from an existential attack, Somali-born activist and author Ayaan Hirsi Ali said, "Trump is right."
Trump shocked other politicians and leaders Tuesday night by declaring, "The West cannot mass import foreign cultures." The situation in Minnesota is a shining example of his point. "The explosion of prosperity, and progress that built the West did not come from our tax cuts. It ultimately came from our very special culture. This is the precious inheritance that America and Europe have in common. We share it, but we have to keep it strong. We have to become stronger, more successful, and more prosperous than ever. We have to defend our culture and rediscover the spirit that lifted the West from the depths of the Dark Ages to the pinnacle of human achievement."
In response, Hirsi Ali said Trump is communicating a critical truth. "Trump is right, and I can't think of a more powerful platform than the President of the United States to say, 'Hey, you guys wake up.'"
As a child in Somalia, Hirsi was subjected to a severe form of female genital mutilation. Later in life, she fled the country to escape a forced marriage and served as a Dutch lawmaker. She is now based in the U.S. and uses her platform to advocate for women's rights, critique Islam and voice support for Western greatness.
"I think every American and every European should know what the president is trying to say is that what made America and Europe great is there's a unique culture. If we don't understand the culture and we do not defend it, we risk losing it," she said.
"The economy is very important. Military is very important. All these other aspects of government are extremely important, but more important than all of that is our value system. And it's our heritage. And it is our national identity."
Regarding Trump's critique of the Somali immigrant population's involvement in the massive Minnesota fraud scheme, Hirsi Ali said, "I wholeheartedly agree with the president. The president is right when he says Somalia hasn't even made it into a nation," she said. "Every attempt at building something, making something out of Somalia has always failed because of the clan code, because of Islam, because of Marxism. We've had all the bad ideologies, and, as Somalis, we've run away with them." Hirsi Ali went on to say the situation in Minnesota exposes a subversive agenda in the U.S. to transform it and to Islamize it using American institutions and the American vocabulary of civil rights. You see the Somalis exploit and extract the benefit system," she said. "They tell everyone, if you expose this, investigate it, object to it, stop it, you're racist. You're an Islamophobe. You are a bigot.
"If we keep on doing what we are doing, getting huge numbers of people from the Third World to come and establish themselves in the United States and European countries and depend on welfare benefits, that is to take and take and never contribute, then we're setting ourselves up not only for failure. We're committing a cultural and national and political suicide."
To combat this she said European nations must follow the Trump administration's example in sealing their borders. She said the U.S. and Europe must also address their broad welfare systems, which she said, "Are just too expensive. We've got to force them to assimilate, or we've got to give them that choice and say, "If you don't want to assimilate into American society, then you will be denaturalized."
JD Vance put it this way: "It's not what we are fighting against, but what are we fighting for? What are we fighting to preserve? If you can't answer that question, then I think you are lost. And the European leaders are lost. And I think he is trying to help them find their way," she said.
What a breath of fresh air your perspective is, Ms. Ali. Keep up the good work.
