Commentary: Amazon, a multi-billion dollar corporation recently yielded unconditionally to Islamic terrorist organization, CAIR which masquerades its vast network under the false pretense of a non-profit company. The “Council for American-Islamic Relations” demanded that Amazon remove products listed that the group deemed “Offensive to Muslims.” CAIR said in a public statement that the products, door mats and bath mats sold by independent resellers on Amazon, are offensive to Muslims because they “would be stepped-on or otherwise disrespected by customers.” Predictably, the Seattle based company complied with the Sharia enforced code of conduct.
What sort of weakened and insidious religion projects offense over door mats and bath mats that “disrespect” the faith? Few Christians take issue with Monty Python mocking the Roman Catholic Church, on the contrary the comedy troupe is highly popular for its mockery of Christianity. Imagine if Monty Python had mocked Islam in similar style? They would all be dead. Dutch cartoonists had their lives threatened for satirical depictions of the Islamic “Prophet” Muhammad.
If Muslim-American groups react this way to independent retailers selling door mats and bath mats on a multi-billion dollar corporate website, they are simply incompatible with American life. Islam is a violent religious philosophy unwilling and unlikely to reform and adapt to difference cultures in ways proven successful for Christianity and Buddhism. Why are products mocking Christianity and Buddhism not removed from Amazon listings? Incidents like Amazon removing door mats and bath mats Muslims view as “offensive” prove that Islam is incompatible with Western Civilization and Culture.
CAIR Asks Amazon to Remove Doormats, Bath Mats with Islamic Religious Text
(WASHINGTON, D.C., 1/3/2019) – The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, today asked online retailer Amazon to remove a number of doormats and bath mats imprinted with Islamic calligraphy, references to the Prophet Muhammad and verses from the Quran, Islam’s holy text.
CAIR said it received complaints about the items offered by Amazon seller Emvency that are offensive to Muslims because the Quranic verses and other Islamic references would be stepped-on or otherwise disrespected by customers.

The Washington-based civil rights organization has in the past urged recalls of similarly offensive items, the most famous of which was a Nike shoe with a logo that resembled the Arabic word for “God.”
