BRIDGEVIEW, IL - A video featuring a Palestinian police officer based in a village near the Chicago area is making waves on social media after the founder of a grassroots news outlet highlighted the concerning nature of the words shared by the officer in the video, who was encouraging those in the Arab community to join police departments across the United States.
Amy Mek, the founder and editor-in-chief of the news outlet RAIR Foundation, took to social media platform X on May 1 with a video depicting a Bridgeview Police Department officer identified in the post as Officer Hamoud, in which the officer encourages Arabs to join the police force.
During the 82-second video featuring the officer, he says to the camera, “This is just encouragement for the young community out there who want to become a police officer. As a police officer, as a Palestinian – the more the merrier – we want to see more Arab police. We want to see as much as we can grow.”
Mek captioned the shared video, expressing alarm over whether the country is heading toward a culture of “America First or Palestine First,” adding, “He’s not pledging allegiance to the Constitution or the United States. He’s telling his ‘community’ that the police force should be flooded with people who share his background and loyalties. This is penetration.”
The RAIR founder described the video featuring the officer as being a byproduct of progressive leaders, including those in law enforcement, “chasing ‘equity’ quotas” while undermining the purpose of law enforcement in the United States – namely to serve as a means “to protect Americans and uphold American law.”
The alarm coming from Mek isn’t unfounded; law enforcement is the mechanism that helps uphold the laws passed at the state and national levels. An upending of American society wouldn’t necessarily require state and federal legislatures to be outright replaced by anti-American ideologues; all that would need to be captured, in theory, is the enforcement mechanism. That’s why legislators are called “lawmakers,” and police are called “law enforcement.”
If our police forces stateside get ideologically hijacked by foreign interests or hostile cultures incompatible with America’s values, then our laws are only as strong as the paper they’re drafted on. The video shared by Mek is illustrative as to just how brazen the harborers of such an incompatible ideology are today – they’re outwardly telling everyone what their plans are and aren’t worried in the least about their agenda being confronted or uprooted.
Which begs the question: Is it too late to save our country from such an infiltration?
